Birthday Blues
Day Two Prompt: WORST PRESENT EVER

Author's Note:

She thought they'd be together
until their dying days.
It never crossed her mind
they could, at some point, part ways.

Head-over-heels in love she was
and thought the sentiment returned
blind to the possibility
that one day she might get burned.

He left one day on business
and for weeks did not respond
to any call or message;
with her heart he did abscond.

Then, on the morning of her birthday
there came a knock at her door
she was handed divorce summons
for he felt their love no more.

Such a horrible birthday present
to leave one in lonesome tears.
A tragedy for a heart open to love
to realize all she feared.

Thank goodness she has friends
on which she can rely.
They'll see her through the heartache
'till her heart again can fly.
