Many years have passed since we were allowed together.

She was so very jealous, calculated and clever.

I desperately tried to protect you, from your very own daughter.

For so long I was alone, with being the one who fought her.

But I was considered an outlaw, with no recognised form of ties.

She abused her position of power and fed us both numerous lies.

Her religious and superior self-image, weaponised her credentials,

Manipulating not only you and me, but also many professionals.

Although I should of known better, I temporarily gave up the fight,

Leaving you to be alone, when she harmed you on that monday night.

Now I forever cherish, our last phone call before your death.

Our mutual love was once again known, before you took your final breath.
