Notes About The Poem

Our son's lament, when his wife divorced him. The poetry form is Hexaduad.

Friction

(Poetry Form: Hexaduad)

We fight
at night.
Our hearts are not attuned;
we sling harsh words to wound.

How can we work this problem out,
when all we do is rant and shout,
accuse, deny and blame?
We each have done the same.

I know you love me still,
my love I cannot kill;
so, please, let's try.
Don't say goodbye.
