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~~
