Oh, were we lost together

You know we were
A confirmation and acknowledgment that they were indeed lost together.
Sad that silence in everything

So the kids no longer have
Desiring peace for the sake of the children who witness parental conflicts.
To see us fighting
Highlighting the negative impact of parental discord on children.

Well I thought that this was for
Initial expectations about the purpose of the relationship, possibly focusing on love.

Beautiful babies
