A Sigh of Relief
a sigh of relief
sometimes sets us apart
from restraints or beliefs
that lay claim to the heart
know the price of your love
is too steep to be brought
if the ones you beloved
lack the lessons it taught
someone you called friend
may have just let you down
or betrayed upon end
as you sever each sound
of a name or a place
that used to be heard
now has just been misplaced
by this gesture of word
when done with confusion
you cant comprehend
its that sigh of relief
that will bring it to end
