The Sweet Goodbye

No one screams, no one shouts, no one to cry. No sobbing wet cheeks or damp eyes to dry No one to stop living, nor wish to die. No one can deny both took the chance to try No one need to ask the other the reason why. No one dares think of how time took to fly. No one stops the blank stares into the sky No more rules and laws of love to comply. No other words unspoken but "Sweet Goodbye". w07-07-19

"No one can deny both took the chance to try" This is for sure! The truth!

Yes Caren. When you best isn't good enough to make a difference. Shake hands and give an "E" for effort.

It would be great if this were true. It has not been my experience. So I read and re-read your poem, that I might try to replace bad memories with good. You write lovely things. Ann

Sadly Ann, this is only after the storms, floods and earthquakes of the relationship. When all that can be said is said, all that can be done, is done. Both are empty inside. Exhausted from the journey. Both want the keep their last ounce of dignity.
