Every week the same
Attacking, anger, blame
Scars like stars -- my heart
absorbs the arrows with my name.
Convenient, isn't it
A wife, a scapegoat, sits
Across the table so you're able
To dump your junk and grit.
The children can join, too
All discontent they spew
Discipline? Why, that's a sin
Gang up, it's fun to do.
I gave up long ago
For peace, though icy cold
But this? Too hot. And peace it's not
My heart begins to fold.
I'm here, but all alone
In this home I call my own
Surrounded by so many eyes
None softer than a stone.
I'm swallowed by the maw
Of loneliness so raw
I know it well. Tales I could tell
Thought I'd escape its claw.
Who are these ones I bore?
Thought I could change the score
Is life a joke? I'm left to croak
To watch, again
From outside the door.

Exquisitely written and terribly painful. I'm sorry you're living this OP. I hope you have someone IRL who is there for you.

I started a thread about being scapegoated too
I think it's a pattern that started in childhood
Did you try therapy

Big hugs
Your thread looks like it's talking about your husband's family scapegoating you for any issues he has?
My poem is about my husband and kids using me as a punching bag every Shabbos
I'm so sorry for your pain.

How old are your kids?
This is so cruel.
Can you get help
