One of the more drastic words in the dictionary is "divorce,"
Where half the weddings in this world go the course.
It is a symbol of failure and a complete lack of love,
Where letters from lawyers go hand and glove,
Where some children and parents are hurt to the core,
And the frivolity of the foolish is hard to ignore,
Where lives are shattered while lawyers get fit,
From financial statements and property split.
There is no advice, no remedy or cure,
It’s the luck of the draw could leave you right poor,
And those who think they don’t have to adapt,
Could be shocked by reality and what they accept,
Therefore step lightly and hope that you’re lucky,
To avoid a divorce that is yucky and mucky,
Or a spouse that is sure to leave you in shock,
While your faith in humanity turns into a crock.
