Divorce Proceedings
When there was emptiness
I filled the void
When you were hungry
I fed you beans
when you sneezed
I brought you Kleenex
when you needed a home
we moved in with my folks
when you needed sympathy
I provided comedy
when you asked for an explanation
I beat around the bush
when you wanted to be serious
I provided sarcasm
when you needed someone to listen
I suggested a psychiatrist
I did all these things for you
and yet you still want a divorce
I cannot imagine what is going on
and why you changed the locks
and hired that high-priced lawyer
I think I still love you
can we talk?
