Like scattered petals fallen to the ground,
My heart needs the pieces put back together.
Your words erased my existence.
Now, I can be free.
For you are gone,
And, I will never speak your words.
When I was young,
You held me captive.
You cannot hurt me now,
Nor do I scare.
Love does not dominate
It cultivates and cares.
I will not ever have your love,
But I have someone who cares.

Yes, the facing of endings can create an uplifting feeling once accepted.
I tried to relate the feeling that one might go through with a lilt at the end.
Thank you …. Isadora

Thank you for the kind comment on my poem.
I combined many of the issues I’ve seen friends experience when it comes to loss
and relationships ending. I’m pleased it resonated with you in some way.
It’s always a pleasure to participate.
Isadora 😎
