This is what <br />It has come to - <br />The knife that cuts, <br />The line that divides <br />One life into two. <br /> <br />You take the china, <br />I'll take the silver. <br />You take the sofa, <br />I'll take the bed. <br />You take the dog, <br />I'll take the child. <br /> <br />Why, oh, why must <br />One life divide this way? <br />Where is the one <br />I loved? <br /> <br />Where is the one <br />I held <br />When the two of us <br />Became one? <br /> <br />Gone. <br />Severed by the knife <br />That cuts, <br />The line that divides <br />One life into two.<br /><br />Scarlett Treat<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/dividing-one-life-into-two/
