Foolish man

Oh foolish man what have you done
The fantasy you lived
Reality in day's harsh light
Is not same in light so dim

Your family, a wife so sweet
And children that call you father
Broken vows and loss of trust
Left now broken hearted

The pleasure short, now not so sweet
Long loneliness to suffer
Oh foolish man what have you done
With life that you were living

Yes there are a lot of foolish man who disregard his family just to satisfy his personal happiness.A pity to his wife and children.
