Even the mighty are falling!

Even the mighty are falling!
As a child I stood in awe of you
You were such an athlete 
You could pick up any sport
And be proficient in a wink
I was clumsy, still am
You didn't understand it
You thought I was lazy
When you found me reading
A lecture and a beating followed
I was terrorised of you
I hated the clock announcing 
Your daily return
I didn't know where to hide
I kept silent, I was rendered dumb
You made my life hellish for five years
Thankfully you divorced my mother
You lived the dream life
You lied and forgot about me
I was not complaining
The years passed
You divorced a second time
Nowadays your mind is going
You need help, it's obvious
But your latest partner 
Has all the attributes of a widow maker 
She'll destroy you 
Good luck to you
Even the mighty are falling!
