They used to be so in love,
like two birds of a feather,
tethered together forever.
She hovered protectively,
meeting his every need,
loving him faithfully.
He held her tight and
called her his.
Every day was but
a moment to them.
Then the pain rushed in
on a northwestern wind
swallowing them.
Lies surrounded
their perfect world
and all was lost.
She cheated
broke his trust,
for the lust.
The voices of doubt
screamed louder,
to the beat of
china plate shatters.
The D word flew quicker
than 747 in winter.
All hope was lost,
with such high cost,
the family dynamic dead.
The Christmas tree
lies silently
waiting for attention
it will never get again.
No more will they laugh
and be merry,
for life is over
for this family.
