DIVORCE

Doubts drown every step In a mind that finds no peace. Voices whisper promises On a memory's lonely breath, Reliving when each dream was ours- Combined in hearts that shared Each wish that love could hold - as one

Ah Dear Craig, you are one amongst the few that actually went for not the factual side but the emotional depth of divorce in a poetic manner. So good to see you do this acrostic. I especially felt the line “ voices whisper promises” “ memorys lonely breath” “ and reliving line. This shows and depicts what an individual feels and the thoughts of one who is going through divorce. Brilliant. Best wishes for the contest: pleasure reading you always

Inky - your comments are always meaningful and poetic as well - It's been many years (I've been through one - no fun having your Id and Ego destroyed)
