A Matter of Perspective

Or, what I learned on the way
to divorce court.


Everyone must know


I am at fault.


Night falls


The wind blows


Time passes


Dreams dissolve,


And I’ve done it


just to hurt you.


What were they worth?


The best years of your life


They were a burden to me.


I could not complete in you


What you would not embrace.


In yourself.


In the end, you gave me nothing


and I gave it back--


Garbage in, Garbage out.


I am a mirror.


Why shatter me?


I don’t make the rules.


I only hang on a cross 


because of them.


Why does imperfection


Seek perfection  


Within an honest glass?

Lee - Honest brutality. Heart rending. Divorce is never a pretty picture. Why is it that some feel they must put the blame all on one. It took two to love. It also takes two to tear love apart. We live in a world where noone wants to accept responsibility...

Namaste'
