I can’t believe it’s actually happening.
I laugh a little when I think about.
Nothing serious,
just a giggle.
When I think of the times all 4 of us shared,
I cry.
When I think of my childhood,
I cry.
I guess it’s the end,
And the divorce is here.
Goodbye to all these good times.
Hello to even better.
After this divorce,
Everything will be happy.
I love my family,
And want us together
But I know we can’t stay like this.
I guess that’s it.
The end of it all.

The author's comments:
This is the poem I wrote the day my parents sat my brother and I down, and told us that they were getting a divorce. Divorces are really tender topics, and it's hard for lots of kids (including me) that find it pretty hard to talk about this kind of stuff, which is why my parents' divorce is what I usually write about.
