Sometimes, it is so difficult to break away from a love that shreds your soul.


Walking Away...

One foot ahead
Down this road.
Damp mist around
My saddened face.

Hands in my coat
As I shuffle ahead
Head down,
Moving forward.

Following the painted line
Of this worn asphalt,
It goes on forever
Just like you.

Another step,
Another foot ahead.
One more tear
Splashes on my shoe.

Walking briskly now,
Seeing a light ahead
Tears flowing softly;
Heart slowly dying,

As we part ways,
And I run from rain
Hoping to find
Myself again...

Hi Morpheus,
When things get sore,
It is better to let go,
Hanging on is like
nuturing a dead limb
Which when left, can
Poison your whole being,
SO take it in this light,
That it was meant to be
like this, and would have been
Even worst otherwise!!!
((((hugs to make you feel a bit better))))
Love, xxx, Zoya

As always, your writing lets the reader feel the emotion inside the words. Excellent!
