Wasn't meant to be
like this
to end
certainly not
like this
even now
I catch myself
unawares
startled
reeling
off kilter
We don't talk no more
only via solicitors
your client my client
blah blah blah
lining their pockets
while within my soul withers
I am mourning
but you didn't die
nevertheless I lost you
left me
in no doubt
in a million pieces
And I have to be
the bigger person
smile graciously
accept
give you my blessing
to love another
that is how I know
it is I who love you
for I set you free
without me
So outside I laugh
Put on the mask of bravery
I am called an 'inspiration'
But inside I am dying
Filled with immeasurable sadness
I make myself
not
go there
Wasn't meant to be
like this
to end
certainly not
this way
bereft

It's hard to cope with the destruction of our dreams. I had a picture of me and my stbx walking hand in hand when we got old, and was a comforting view of the future that has been exploded out of existance. | |

Yes Hope mine was sitting holding hands on that damned park bench when we are 64 envied by passing young lovers, aint gonna happen now, well maybe someone else, who knows. Life has a way of whacking you over the head with a might hammer when you least expect but love and kindness find you in the most expected places. |

I dreamed that dream for 18 years, it's not gonna go away overnight, but I know that I will get to the point that it gets replaced by other dreams. I just have to start dreaming them! | |
