Independence Day
What a feeling it must have been
To be independent
To form a new country
Perhaps that is the reason
Why people get divorced
To be independent
To start a new life
Except those who divorce
Were independent to begin with
Which makes it harder
To be dependent
Whatever the reason may be
For those who are divorced
Independence Day is a tribute
And a cause for celebration
And for those who are married
Independence Day is a reminder
That the country has done
What they could not
And will not
