Surely

Surely, surely,surely
No I guess I won't be getting
Any children named after me
To grow up,I'm glad I waited.
Surely....
Divorce is hard, but I have comfort
Divorce is hard but I have comfort

Surely you just, you can't be serious.
Seriously, your cerebral cortex must be deficient
Curious with the dearth of quality
Male prospects good luck finding a man this decent.
I admit luck with women non existent.
I made my peace for my mistakes
For those I repent
Im happy to seek a soul mate who 
will understand me and no what I meant.
One whom fuels me up and refuels me after all my energy is spent.
In one regard I'm at a loss,
A drift in a solitude like no other
Licking my wounds, taking inventory- one lost lover.
Painstakingly in rebuilding mode
Is this a manifestation of bad karma, reeping what I sowed.
Today I breathe a sigh of relief
I become relieved that I can escape with my life, nothing owed.
No children were harmed in the departure.
It just wasn't my time yet to be a father.
Repeat.... I guess you won't be naming no children after me....
