We Hope You Understand
Child, when Daddy shuts the door
And you don't think you could cry more
And when your broken heart is sore
We hope you understand
Tomorrow starts your whole new life
Mum alone, Dad with new wife
Which is the one that wields the knife?
We hope you understand
And when you think the worst is through
Our focus is returned to you
Do you realise what we're trying to do
Do you understand?
Well, do you know that in our scorn
Divorce is chess, the child the pawn
Mum, in our broken home this morn
How could I understand?
i really enjoyed this one. great way to express divorce. keep writing!
I like how you wrote this. It's from the view point of the child verses the view point of the adult. Divorce is a hard thing to endure, especially for a child, and some people never understand it or get over it.
