Permanently Partitioned

Okay. At last, I understand
That all the old frustrations
That bedeviled us before she
Left would reappear with her.
I love her, and I miss her still,
And I suspect that she loves
Me, but our lives cannot be
Combined. So many social
Controversies, moral issues,
Intervene. She says she won't
Come back to me, and I'm
Convinced we will not meet.
What's changed is that I
Realize it's better that we
Don't.
