Thoughts

Do you see divorce as a failure? I see it as a sign of strength To remain in a love-less marriage Isn't what marriage vows have meant Indifference causes the death of love It's impossible to defend With one person's non-interest Joint love must surely end One can't repair what's divided It takes nurturing daily A dual commitment is still required If we treat each other fairly To remain together is useless One's feelings begin to shut down There's nothing to build for the future And love feelings cannot be found So we'll get single, vows we'll sever We cannot alter what's past No more alone-ness 'though still together Find some peace at last.
