POETRY

The “D” Word

A Deluge of “D” words and my Definition to Describe Divorce

Image by ElisaRiva from Pixabay

When I was going through my divorce, the word was so painful to me that I had a strong, visceral reaction every time I’d hear it.

I began referring to it as the “D” word.

I was seeing a life coach at the time and she encouraged me to come up with my own definition to reframe its meaning for me. In the process of doing this, I came up with a list of other D words that I described how I was feeling.

Here is the list followed by my definition. I suppose in an odd way, this could be poetry.

Disconnection

Disappointment

Dissatisfaction

Discord

Distance

Deterioration

Detachment

Deep

Dark

Dank

Dreary

Damsel in Distress

Down

Damaged

Drained

Difficult

Disastrous

Distraught

Disrupt

Damn

Decision

Demolish

Decompose

Disintegrate

Divide

Detach

Dissolve

Death

Done

Divorce: A deep, dark, difficult decision out of which rises a door through which self-discovery and a new direction is possible.
