It all started with a smile
I am smiling at her
And she smiles back
Maybe we caught love then
...
When the final ugly word came
Divorce, divorce, divorce!
...
Its images flash by
Feeding your desire
Shop, Shop, Shop!
...
Under the sheets is a breakdown
Hiding in a cocoon of blankets
Tossing the covers to the side
...
Here sleeping beauty lies
In the throes of prozac
It used to keep her up
Now it keeps her down
...
Weep then laugh
Mourn then dance
Argue then embrace
Love then love
...
Even though,
I knew it wouldn’t last
The heart is wiser
In the house of love
...
The way that was
Creeps back unheard
Now as he did to you
He’ll do to another
...
In the very means
Of this life
The spirit of love
...
Jealousy reigns
As love is twisted
Then unwrapped
...
