Shattered Dreams

Till death do us part …
There was a time that those words
Sounded wonderful to me
A time in which dreams
Of a long future promised us.
Days filled with laughter
Working beside each other
Building ourselves a foundation
For our family to grow

Let no man put asunder …
Now would have thought
This man would be you
To steal those dreams
We promised for our future
Casting them aside, shattering them
With your anger an hatred
Not just yourself but everything
Drowning out the laughter

Time passed, death did come …
Yet not as we had anticipated
It crept up on us unexpectedly
Till the good times all turned bad
No smiles to brighten the days
Dreams washed away with tears
Our promised future an foundation
Cracked, crumbled an fell
Death came in the way of divorce.
