The Final Goodbye

She watched him sleeping, wondering

When did she stop loving him

Was it gradual

Did she ever love him

Could she love another

Her mind was made up

She would leave tomorrow

He watched her sleeping, wondering

Placing the pillow over her face

Did he ever love her.

As both of them were unsure if one loved the other, it is better that they go their different ways. There is no heartbreak or regret .... ! Without love there is no point in being together. Thanks Paul for your kind visit to my page.

Thanks, Valsa. Some just should never be together.

Quite a startling twist! The thoughts people have are sometimes terrifying. One is left wondering why? What drove him to this? Powerful imagery.

Some relationships sure are toxic.
