At the End of the Road

At the End of the Road
Stop begging me to stay! Don’t act like you don’t know, our journey ends right here - my answer is still “NO!”
Once you were my pleasure, but now you’re my poison. Your type of love is toxic; so that’s my real reason.
I’m tired of these rocky roads, and done with the games you play. I’m dizzy from your ups and downs; it’s time we call it a day!
Let’s make this nice and easy- I don’t want you to cry. Let’s have no handshake, no hug, nor a last kiss good-bye.
Stop begging me to stay! Surely by now you should know, we reached the end of our road… as love left us long ago!

Thank you so very much, my dear Heidi! We have to know when it's time to move on - no point holding on to any relationship that is toxic or that has issues which can't be fixed! Hugs. Pandita

A strong write Pandita. I'm not sure I could be so straight forward about the end of a relationship.

Hi James, it's so nice to hear from you and receive your kind compliments! Actually I am a firm believer that when a relationship breaks down and there are no fixes, then I should be straightforward and firmly end it - not callously but as gently as possible of course :-)! Best wishes. Pandita

Hi Pandita, Happy New Year! I love this piece which makes it quite clear what it means when love is gone - sadly, it's the end of the road for a relationship. A 7 and good luck in the contest! Kika
