Rethink Divorce

Antoinette M

Title: Rethinking Divorce
Poem:
Rethinking Divorce

Why not me?
Why not you?
Why not us?
Why be through?

Why not grow?
Why not build?
Why not prosper?
With both of our will?

Why not flourish?
Traveling with the wind?
Forgetting the past?
By being each other's best friend?

Why not explore?
Why not create?
Why not heal?
Why stay filled with hate?

Why choose to give up?
Why choose not to forgive?
Why not choose love?
With the one life, we have to live?
