Poem for today:
“the end of the course”
is this the end?
have we run our course?
will this be the ending chapter
of this love affair?
I’ve been down this road before
but it doesn’t make it easier
my heart forms a new crack
each time I have to say goodbye
Goodbyes are such life-shakers...
ReplyDeleteIts so difficult when we have to say goodbye.. beautiful and tender write.
ReplyDeleteHow sad each time we have to say goodbye ~

I like the pondering questions here...they leave a little bit of room for hope, perhaps.
ReplyDeleteThe fissures of goodbye are hard to mend.
ReplyDeleteGoodbyes are so hard. I have many people whom I still call friends, despite not having seen them in a couple of decades.
ReplyDeleteSome say the cracks are how the light gets in? Wonder if I believe it.
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for reading and commenting
ReplyDeleteThose goodbyes seemed so much more devastating to me when I was younger. I suppose my heart doesn't feel quite as vulnerable anymore.
ReplyDeleteThe imagery of the heart cracking for each good bye...very effective.
