We had gone as far as we could.
Said all that we could say.
We can do no further good.
So neither of us want to stay.
–
Our last words are being said.
Along with a deep firm hug.
For one last time I held her head.
Feeling my heart give that familiar tug.
–
The times we had were very hard.
Many situations were each unfair.
Our story mapped on a crooked chart.
Painful times we both did share.
–
As I hold her for the last time.
Fresh warm tears stain my face.
Break-ups are horrible like the scene of a crime.
Pain, ruin, and destruction all over the place.
–
What was the final cause?
I’m not sure if we’ll ever know.
Many bad circumstances we tripped across.
Never finding any stability or flow.
–
We share heartfelt goodbyes.
And many “I’m sorries” in our embrace.
We let go, I give kiss her forehead as she cries.
I softly wipe the tears streaking down her face.
–
The life we shared now at an end.
And the memories of it today, are just a haze.
Once we were lovers, but now distant friends.
Parting, each we go our separate ways…
