Sorrowful tales ...

Sadness is having to witness a divorce
when i should be attending a wedding,
Sadness is having to draft the terms for separation
when they should have been well wishes for finding a mate;
Sadness is having to bear witness to accusations of infidelity
having to just stand there helplessly, feeling the pain
And seeing tears flowing freely from both parties,
tears of sorrow, tears of hurt, tears for having to say "That's it! Let's part!"
when it should have been "Let's start a happy new life together ..."
And when one leaves with nothing but bad memories and a suitcase
while the other's frail back trembles with wretched sobs in my farewell hug -
was the saddest sadness in a long, long time ...

  1. To both of you: all the best -
    perhaps you'll find a new mate to love
    and be blessed with a new life,
    a new beginning, a new love,
    perhaps it's best, to let things rest -
    till you could get your bearings again,
    just take a rest, no one to impress'
    no feelings need to suppress,
    just let nature take its course -
    and leave the rest to God, of course!
