DIVORCE
Divorce is a bad word
It is spoken every day
Who would ever want love
to up and go astray
It boils down to who is giving
while others just ride and slide
Who gave you your children
that family life woven in pride
You were drawn by physical attraction
enjoyment of ever lasting fruit
No one saw it coming
till separation began taking root
Yes I lived this life and all it's turns
married the same woman times three
we never threw mud or words that burns
which left our conscience free
A child can not let go of the past
mistakes are blamed on the parents
Never letting things to drop
until their life becomes transparent
So may be I am one of the lucky ones
where the children tied the knot
No matter how long your dreams may last
Divorce makes a family rot
