Ex just called

[rshreve]

So my ex-wife just called
I simply got mauled

For even after three years
It is me she still smears

I know this of coarse
And say it without remorse

She is a loon
A stonecold buffoon

Even after the divorce
There is no remorse

Only bitterness and hate
In which I do not legate

Why can't we just be genteel
It would make much more of an appeal

Why can't we just talk
No, she just reeks havoc

She brings on the stress
Into the past she does regress

When I snap her into the present
All she does is resent

Let us not look at the past
For that we have surpassed

Let us look to the future
Like a new venture
With some nurture and culture
Would be the perfect mixture

[creativesoul]

the wealth that i have in this lifetime is due to love
all the ones i touched
that touched me
are free
i had to let them go
the snow
brings me something
i cannot see
but i know when it is cold and i am trapped
i quit
i just quit
no more being feeling trapped
with this in mind
i was so blind
when it came to expectations
all the truth
i could imagine
a haven
of safety
could not have released them
like birds fleeing from a cage
each of us has to deal with our own rage
old ideas, and the sadness
of all the hearts
that wanted more
had a moment when no one is keeping score
so much more
than walking out the door

[rshreve]

What does it solve
For it is both we involve

Not one is to blame
For that would be a shame

Let's talk it out
Without so much as a shout
And how about
Not even a pout

We will do this here and now
Even if one of us doesn't know how

For now is the time
Even if I have to do it in rhyme

So what do you say
Is it time to pay

[constantine]

the rhyme and near-rhyme couplet structure works with the subject matter.

Good poem.

[creativesoul]

you go bro- i love it- hey hey- dance around the room, put some good music on!

[rshreve]

I like to use it as a whole now and of course giving proper credit to you
I think it's awesome
