Estranged

He was cast aside by them
Estranged...
Break ups within the family
Never seem to mend...
She left this life years ago
He was never allowed to grieve
They drifted apart so long ago
How could life simply go on?
Without a family to cling to...
Without any familiar ties...
Estranged: distanced by lies
Another's domineering character
Stood between them all
Caused that deep rift
She couldn't stand up to him
Torn between husband and family
She was lost along the way
Turned to stealing their inheritance
Took mother's money to pay
For her addictions: her pain
Had her own battles to fight 
He never saw her again...
Couldn't find solace
So much left unsaid
But in reality
There was nothing to be said

He doesn't even know where she lies...
