Divorce
By maggot death
When I was young
I had it all:
love
luck
grades
It was all mine...
It felt like it just came to me.....
Until the divorce
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few days before
oh, how they argued...
it makes me feel gore,
that my one hero,
my
one idol
left me to the world beyond
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
He packed his suitcase
He said "look at me...
"I am leaving
and I am not coming back"...
He walked
out of the old,
creaky front door
that we still
have today.
My sister thought he would never leave...
but when the 5 year old
that had so much ahead of her
found out, she cried,
"Where is Daddy going...?"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ever since then
my life has been dragged
by deaths,
and loss of my luck
loss of my love
and I became a soul out of many
that lost a life of
no issues,
no worries,
and no problems of any kind
due to the darkness
that I would call
divorce...

This is moving! I can't definitely feel this, my parents divorced when I was 2. I have never been truly knowledgeable of them together! All I have is pictures and frail stories of what could have been, but what isn't and what has never been! Hang in there, you'll use this to feed upon and fortify! Just as I have!

Thank you, everybody, for enjoying my work. This is not nearly my best of it, though. I will post my best poetry and best stories in the very near future, and will continue my 'The 13th year' series as soon as I can.

Wow, Brenden, you are an incredible poet. I've never personally gone through a divorce so I'm not able to relate, but their is a lot of pain in this poem. Remember I'm here for you and things will get better.

child of divorce.... you may find you will be more resourceful for it, and so we shall make our own luck. some things will return, though never quite the same.
