Parents divorcing

no quality time

tearing their children's hearts open

screaming throughout our body

Rushing home to their new family

Swaping out old childrens presence

Replacing new childrens presence

Never looking back on the old

Eating on shiny platters

Forgetting the old

Experiencing guilt

Remembering the old

kicking the new to the side,

rushing back to the old.

Vision filling with the old

The old has flown away,

off to a great new place

Filled with tradition and love

But he wants the old

The guilt has taken him over

everythings changed

nothing will be the same,

The old has moved on

But he knows the mistake he made

He lives with regret forevermore.
