Divorce - no more

When I was young 

I was flung 

into the hurricane of family 

arguments; oh the agony 

back then, I knew next to nothing 

what pain the future would bring

sadness, insecurity,

crying hysterically 

Divorce soon came, 

leaving me in shame. 

Was it my fault? 

no. 

all doubts came to a halt 

I realized I was not to blame

I overcame. 

and vowed to help others do the same. 

grown up now, college in one year

into my dream career I peered.

To work with insecure children 

and preventing divorce; good family values I would teach and build in, 

hoping and hoping. 

for what? to see the glowing 

faces of children and whole families 

generation after generation.
