Alimony apart

poem in rhymimg quatrains

 

 

Alimony apart

 

Sometimes love dies .No one’s to blame

 but it is painful just the same.

To lose the love that once you knew

 but there is little you can do

 

When you mature at different rates.

One pressing on one hesitates,

 the rift develops so slowly.

It takes a while before you see.

 

The love you shared has truly gone

 and you are ready to move on.

The time has come for you to part

Which you accept with heavy heart.

 

Some couples find that when love ends

 it’s possible to part as friends

 but only if they both agree

 to share their assets equally.

 

Most couples don’t they cannot see

 there’s no need for acrimony.

They can’t regain what they have lost.

Its only fair they share the cost.
