My dearest Silvia
Silvia,
I am writing this in the hopes that there is a kind of closure for us.
A mending of the holes we bore in our souls.
Silence has defined us for far to long.
Silent are the whispers that strung us along.
Feeling misplaced.
Disappointment has found us.
I can only support your decision.
No participation. I can not help you
by breaking our hearts.
My best intentions are to far apart.
You were my shelter, the
Rock that I built my life upon.
Our love the storm. I must leave
my heart behind for it knows
no other life. I lack the sustenance
that brought it to life. lustful places
is now where I reside. I'd rather not mention.
I need you to remember the rhythm to the rhyme
we once shared
so I can go free.
