God Hates Divorce

Negative comments won't hold me down I won't be wearing it like a royal crown It won't get rid of the divorce papers my dad received When I heard about it, I felt myself in the inside grieve...will he ever be relieved? That message was received at the wrong day and the wrong time Drowsily, making rhyme after rhyme after rhyme time after time I don't want the same for us - This tragedy that has thrown us under the bus Isn't my beloved mother aware That God hates divorce? Is my humble father ever going to be happy just a hair? We can't move the carriage without the horse How I hate unloving Satan with a passion? He makes sin as eye-catching as fashion Divorce will take us on another level of lament Momma, I want you to feel regret and I want God to inspire you to repent I still have hope in mind still You know what? It's all in God's will I'll let it be and stop acting like a pill I need to literally take a sleeping pill to chill out For sweet sleep isn't given to me tonight no doubt Oh well, yeah, I fell pretty hard on my bottom Now, I feel so numb and dumb and getting tasteless like gum I can't put a finger on how shocked I am This divorce process will make me a more lost lamb I keep listening to music Because it's awfully therapeutic The hardships we encounter Is all because of her...I'm sure... Sorry for being a blame-placer But I'm a hater of divorce too My fine and dandy future's a mighty blur Now that I see my dad blue

Yeah.. with you 100% on this topic J.... In a divorce everyone is a loser.... it's shocking how easily people settle for this before trying to work things through. The end result is a broken family with broken people who never recover. God wasn't trying to be authoritarian on this... when he said that those that He put together, no one should part... it was a protection clause meant for our happiness. I have never seen a happy divorced couple. Great write on a difficult topic ~~X~~
