Reflections On Divorce
We took each other for better or worse, til death do us part.
Little did we know, instead it would end with a bleeding heart.
Today the final papers were signed
Hoping it will give us final peace of mind.
You were the man that could do no wrong.
The husband that I thought would be lifelong.
The affection and friendship has now fled.
And now we will have new lives instead.
Bitterness and resentment are in each other’s eyes,
While we both try to forget the deceit and the lies.
We both don’t understand and are quick to blame.
But really what happened is that you extinguished the flame.
There is a season for everything, this is an irreversible conclusion.
Could it be that our happiness was just an illusion?
Anticipation for a new life awaits, on that we both agree.
God has a new plan for me…this decree has set me free!
