Divorce by Richard Maxfield 3-16-99 Divorce is cruel and unfair when one is in love and the other don’t care years spent in love giving your all and more what other pains does love have in store divorce takes away , it does not give when all is gone what reasons to live children trying to live with only one you do all to save a love, what more could be done you look back over the years trying to understand where it went wrong between a woman and a man one takes your love then cast it away what a cruel game love can play when divorce comes you can never prepare to let go, and live in despair all that you love and all that you know it is so hard to let it go hurtful things said and done when divorce comes there can be no fun plans and dreams for tomorrow taken away because ones love did not stay one persons selfishness and like of respect the other left alone to cry and reflect I loved her with all that a man could why then did love not stay the way that it should divorce is cruel and unfair when one is in love and the other don’t care
Reason for writing:
My wife of 20 years left my daughter and I. She says she does not know why. I am trying to understand it myself, but if she don't know what chance do I have of understanding.
