Offering Your Cheek in a Messy Divorce

 

What does offering your cheek

Look like in a messy divorce?

Avoid escalating disputes

Use grace in every discourse

Work to promote the idea

Of emotional resilience

Get off by yourself to think

And be taught in the silence

Focus on personal growth

For dignity and composure

For healing in your heart and soul

Make the kind of goals your can measure

Perhaps use a mediator

So your can heal and move on

You don't have to talk together

No longer a mat to step upon

Know your emotions are raw

And you need to get your thoughts out

Ever turn towards God

Be transformed with the Spirit about
