Pains of a Divorce by Courtney B ChilesI don’ know what to do anymore since you have torn me apart,
I don’t know what to do anymore since you have broken my heart.
I have had so many feelings since you have told me this,
When I finally leave, will my heart be filled with bliss?
I can’t believe you are asking me to leave my life behind,
I never thought you were someone who could be so unkind.
I never thought that this could ever happen to me,
I always thought that we would always be the perfect family.
I can’t believe I am feeling this kind of pain,
I have so many unanswered questions that it’s driving me insane.
When you left I felt like I had been slapped in the face,
It made me feel like I was a disgrace.
Why did you have to leave me alone?
Why is it when you talk to me, your voice always has a tone?
Why will you not come back?
Why can’t you ever cut me any slack?
You are just like so many others wanting something better and new,
I guess as far as you are concerned you are through with me too.
I wish this was all a bad dream,
I wish that this you were never this mean.
I never thought this would happen to us,
I knew it was true when all you could do is fight and fuss.
Even though our family is through,
I want you to know I will always love you.
