Let Us Grow Apart
In repose, my dreams flowing by.
I wake in alarm. For you are gone
Not gone from this woeful world, only mine.
And not by your choice; my own.
Our trust lastingly torn
I can’t accept your friendship, but
I want to learn from my mistakes.
For all I know, my greatest err
was letting show the heart you’d take.
Though I’ve closed the door
I hope my feelings soften
‘fore resentment wins,
‘fore the burnt bridge collapses.
‘Til then, let us grow apart.
