ASUNDER

Asunder

    Edward Iacona



As I walk the dog each night, I stare into the sky.

The stars alone bear mute witness to my daily weary sigh

I still ask the heavens of what went wrong to love that went awry.

And I think of the things we could have done but she would not even try.



Writing rhymes about our problems is a great temptation.

No matter our marital pitfalls there were vows of dedication.

Heartbreak and richer lawyers are the only education

True soul mates who have broken bonds are a sad aberration.



Love and trust can be repaired, make it your marriage vocation.

Marriage and family live in love and should not seek cessation.

So, these words from I who may face life in relative isolation

'Never make a permanent fix to a temporary situation.'
