Let’s cut the cord
of discord
since I’m bored
with you
never having
never giving
because you’re living
beyond your means
and child support payments
are few and far between.
“I had a dream,”
that one day
you and your child would remain
connected
despite our defection
but instead of your affection,
there were only false hopes, disappointments
upsets and rejection.

Let’s cut the cord
of discord
since you can’t afford
to spend time or even spare a dime.
Goodbye.
No love lost for a lost love,
in our case water is thicker than blood.
“Depart from me,”
I never knew you–
I got half a mind to sue you
the cord is cut.
