The flowers they all dried brown
The rings were put away
Pictures stacked and sorted
There was nothing left to say
The gown that was worn once
A bouquet tossed in a box
An album of two now only one
Faded colours counted by clocks
Great hopes and aspirations
Lost by a decreed court
Names change to hide failure
Erasing all as last resort
The greatest sin yet to be
Most destructive left unsolved
Wasn't broken vows and promises
But that children were involved
