Here is a poem I wrote about my kids during my divorce…

I see it every day and I say it’s only living
Like life is only pain, believe me; my heart was given.
Anguish, heartbreak and a hurt I can’t erase
A light, a warmth I wish will shine upon your face.

Dreams that fade away, like we’re all just lost at sea.
Imperfect events, a deep regret; I now see
These tears of sorrow; please forgive me.

We need, we need an answer and we need a hope.
We need, we need a portrait of grace; to help us cope.
Just one steady thing, in this world that aches!
Just one steady thing, in this world that breaks!

It’s so hard to say goodbye, to the time I shared with you.
It’s so sad that this journey broke us in two.
With tears running down my face, I know it’s going to be ok.
With His grace, walk your path; I know it’s going to be ok.

I’ve been trying to find a way to understand;
Why I can’t see the destination, the full picture of God’s plan
Why would He let us hurt so bad?
Could anything good come of these convictions that I have?
I love you more than the sand on the beaches
I love you more than the grass is green
My love is part of you and your love is part of me!

And even though I had to go….I always knew,
That it’s going to be ok.

Have you had to walk through the dark valleys of divorce or are you going through one now?
