An Amicable Parting

Our love was a mixture of dreams, joy and pain, they were not of equal parts. Oh, but how they each tore the heartstrings apart, Now, we are at the crossroads of parting ways, So let’s admit to the World once more and say It’s just you and I. There’s no need for tears to cascade down our cheeks or bitter words to escape our lips in a sigh. In this lifetime, we can only take a glimpse as we pass each other by, And from time to time, maybe wave a hello or a goodbye, I know the weight of our parting we cannot bear, even for a day, But time and destiny say this is where we part, each going a separate way. Our love from the past, we must not dishonour, For in our hearts, our cherished love will be looking on, knowing it was a privilege and an honour, Promises made, we must now forget, The memories that we made, we shouldn’t ruin with thoughts of regret. Like two ships passing in opposite directions, we will pass each other without taking that last never-ending embrace, And with a mutual understanding, we have chosen an amicable parting, so let’s accept our fate with dignity and grace. And as the sun sets on this chapter of our love story, let’s wish each other nothing but sheer delight, Let’s fly high like an Eagle, with the wings that love gave us, and to support each other in fulfilling the rest of our dreams still within our sight. by Zyrool

Zyrool, this is an admirable way for love to part, no hurting each others hearts. Whether this is fiction or fact, it’s an honourable way to end a relationship. Blessings, Beryl

Letting go of someone is wonderful when they both want it. Your poem is a rational look at life
