The Horror of Divorce

by RainbowSlider   Oct 25, 2005


I miss the peaceful feeling.
I remember saying we.
We use to say I love you
and oh that feeling.
You were there for me
and I was there for you.

Loneliness because the
friend is gone.
Terror because there
is only me.
Sadness because we
are not still together.

A part of me is gone.
Such anger because
we said forever.
Such hurt because
at one time
we were in love.

What happened?
Where did we go wrong?
Forever now seems so short.
I wake up alone
but still feel for you
in the middle of the night.

Crying on my pillow
and tears all around me.
My heart is broken
and I feel so alone.
Life is so scary
now that you are gone.

We used to be friends
and talked all through
the night.
We used to make plans
and now those plans
are broken like us.

    You're right. I worry too much about content and reality. I should really pay more attention to composition. I just put the raw feeling out but sometimes it doesn't flow right. I think I got two poems mixed up and tried to combine them into one. But I got the feeling out in the order that they were felt at the present time but the event event occured or events I should say since it happened twice with the same person was different each time. Sorry for the run on sentence, lol. My English teacher taught me better than that. I am just getting some of this now. Way too late I know, lol. What can I say I am thickheaded, lol. Will try to look at first five lines, again, really didn't want to, lol. I have a rebellious nature, lol. Hard to teach, lol. Not waste of time just slow, lol. Really long winded here, lol. Geez, I think I am writing another letter, lol. Well, anyways thanks for the input.

    So whoever voted this a vote, just don't listen to them. it's better then that. i actually really like this poem. the first 5 lines has way too many "no more" in it. i think if you fix that up this poem would be stronger. just a little advice though. i have seen the horrors of divorce though many times within my extended family and friends. it's terrible with how many families break apart these days. i hope that what ever you are going through works out for the best.
