                               Day in day out I reel with deep despair
                                  Imagining how my children will fare
                                    Visibly without motherly fondness
                                  Other than just fatherly tenderness;
                               Rather than musing on the deadly mess
                                   Cautious I am to scan my stoic side
                                    Envisaging how pains to cast aside.

Divorce - always painful, often messy but sometimes inevitable

It surely creates a mess for one`s children who, if very young, may not understand what is happening or has happened. Thanks for your observations. KG
