Birthday Valentine

How we got to male and female
Must have started with some discussion
Within a single chord
                    
The notes wanted their own lives
Then unity insisted on going solo
Not the same old same
 
In the beginning was the original divorce
Slowly as a back is turned
Love answered to the freedom not to love
 
So even those who never marry
Are grandfathered in
We go from love to loss
 
And back to love in pain
Each searching for a way
To give birth to one self again
