I have lost my love lately and it was for the best.

My heart is hurting.
My back is aching.
My laughters swanning.
And I am dejected.

Why do I feel this way?
I am the one who said “Go Away!”

It’s for the best.
From two different worlds.
Two different goals.
Two different pearls.

I want him back.
I am the one who said “There is no way!”

Knife.
Heart.
Cut.
Bleed.
Me.

    Thank you very much Nobert. I need the encouragement. It was hard to let him go, especially since he didn’t want to leave. But I managed some how.

    Thank you for your comments Bozsi and Veronica!

    When you tell him to go, you must have gone through some thinking. Time will heal that ache..

    Sometimes the only way to release the ghost is to let the ones we love pass by.

    Very profound, I felt your pain. Great job, even though it’s about a sad moment in time, it would be time that heals all pain.
    Let’s hope not too much time, at least. Stay well.

    I was going through your porfilio, and decided to read this one first. Why? The Title. I\’m so into mythology and always loved the story of Orion.

    This was very powerful, heartbreaking and sad. We have all been there. I relate to this very well. I been through stuff like this. To deal with it I write as I see you do too. Great work.
