Fortified walls of bronze erected.
Unhallowed vows tore excruciatingly, asunder.
Emotional black mail divides, the one become two.
Evil, unseen principalities unleashed, surmised
Severed, a three fold cord, a union disarmed.
Divine vows untied, unraveled.
Sacred lovers desist, formidable enemies persist.
Forsaken, entwined, the two self abased, part ways.
The bars of iron cut.
Naked and gleaned, vulnerable, crushed and sifted.
Volatile entanglements cease.
Irreconcilable, licentious differences.
A sordid solution.
A morbid penance paid.
Abandoned, a lacivious companion released.
A spirit a mere silhouette.
An identity a mirrored shadow.
It took dissolution of marriage.
To obtain coveted riches concealed.
To inherit treasures hidden in darkness.
To retrieve the lost portions of my soul.
What do you think? Is my poem contest material?

The ugliness of domestic conflict described in a painfully accurate expression. I have seen very few marriages that actually work and render the involved matter that allows them to proceed the relation voluntarily. Perhaps there are too many things lacking in our perception and communication to engage in such a type of cohabitation. I believe there are at times contests issued dealing with this particular topic. Thank you for creating and sharing. Take care.

Your user name did not appear hope this goes to the right viewer
I so agree, to put it lightly I no longer agree with the instuition of marriage, I was married twice each time property and money was the issue at last. Both times it left me indebt. And one usually becomes controlling, the other passive. Writing, art, was all put on hold. I so need self expression, my creativity is spiritual and without it I almost lost myself dying on every level.
I so appreciate your valued in put,you too appear to ponder weight things, so love your spirit

You've shown the reader some of the damage that occurs in a divorce, and end with the unthought benefits gained.
Sometimes we can spend a life-time fooling ourselves and others. Not all marriages require a partner to set aside their own needs, but from personal experience I know this happens, and recognise the freedom that can be re-experienced when the end comes.
Yes, I'd say you have a contest-worthy poem here. Keep writing, keep reading, and good luck!
