Care to read a sad (but common) tale? Any thoughts?

I really love the last stanza, especially;

"never noticing

how like chains

our interlocking fingers are beginning to look."

Aren't chains sometimes necessary? At least they're secure...

it really is a sad tale if you do no longer make it, yet an quite satisfied tale if you locate acquaintances like you and techniques to administration. most of the most suitable artwork is on the marketplace interior the decision of life's pains. exhilaration is continuously a chance, if no longer a truth.

Sounds horrible (not the poem, the thought). Hence the reason I'm never ever ever getting married.

I like that gripping to keep from falling and how those hands are actually like chains.

The chains that kept our hands together

I did not know, how or whether

I would survive if I let go

I clasped on tight, I did not know

Then finally the words that you did speak

Made my heart sink, my knees got weak

You wanted your freedom,you no longer cared

Cared nothing about this life we shared.

I opened up the door to your confined cage

And started over, a brand new page.

I found the girl that I was suppose to be

Look out world, it's a brand new me!

Love's victory is in spite of us.

Nice pen, fiction for some, non-fiction for others.

Marriage has many facets, including complacency. Well said. Liked your last line. 'lo' or 'though' on line 2? Do you need 'and' on line 8?

the other excitement comes in the last stanza, it's called soothe

good write

firstly thump-up for writing such a beautiful poetry!...and this is something noone would want to come in their life but at sometime or the other ,many people are faced with such a situation...hope this has not happened to you??my best wishes:)>:D<

Such a beautiful write for a sad topic.

I am glad that hasn't happened to me...

It's always sad when we outgrow our partners or they outgrow us or become bored. You worded the sentiment very eloquently. Liked it alot.
