Breakups Are Always Good News

All that we have can be lost 
But, its value cannot be taken away
You have covered your tuition cost
Now don’t let the knowledge decay

Brother, I know you’re a polluted ocean blue
But I cannot help but be happy for you 
The boat you float so comfortably has capsized
You have to retreat and become reorganized 

Do not weep for the boats old keep
For joy will once again deploy 
The pain will turn from tomb to womb 
As fish eggs hatch and family love to attach

Then as you float to your new shore
Know true love will guide your way
As you return to those who adore
I hope you let us stay.
