STARTING OVER
Silence is golden
/\/\/\
He spoke not a word
When she opened the door.
His world being torn in two.
His eyes filled with tears
When she uttered the words:
“I’m no longer in love with you.”
They were both very young
When they became man and wife,
Their future theirs to behold.
As she became very tired
While doing everything required,
She never noticed his love turned cold.
She was lonely and sad
Each day while he was gone
Thinking he worked hard every day.
Until each little clue
Told a new story:
His work was actually PLAY.
She made up her mind
That her only solution
Was to begin her life once again.
Though her husband now cried
She still filed for divorce
Then married her lawyer named Ben.
