Birds were singing <br />Outside the window, <br />Dawn light was beginning to show, <br />A day of decision was rapidly approaching. <br /> <br />On the day of my divorce, <br />There was brilliant sunlight streaming, <br />Drenching every boulevard with hope. <br /> <br />With tears on my face <br />And a quivering voice, <br />I asked my wife not to go, <br />But her mind was set to dash every memory <br />Against disintegrating stones of forgetfulness <br />Like an ancient warrior throwing an enemy’s children <br />Over a cliff to rocks below, <br />Plunging them to their death. <br /> <br />I took a long drive into the gorgeous sunlight, <br />But I knew, there were parts of myself and God <br />I would never see again.<br /><br />Uriah Hamilton<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-day-god-died/
