Humble poems by a venturing artist

My mom and dad divorced
It was worse than falling off a horse.
Their discourse was painful
and now we have our hands full
dealing with the decision
to create an incision in our family life
and cause strife between husband and wife
leaving a wake of miserable ache in our hearts
but it starts with unforgiveness that makes us wish
that it was better than this and we could go back to the way it was
before this whole mess got started.
Instead we deal with it
and move through it
and accept that it is what it is
because of the choices that were made
and thankfully we have the choice
to save ourselves from the same mess.

Okay, I'm done with that now.

A.C.
