End of a sad love tale

End of a sad love tale

A Poem by butterfly

Thanks for thinking of me today
Even in this small way
I guess if our love couldn't bloom our friendship will still be great
I go on without blocking without stopping just buying myself flowers
holding my own hand
Stronger in my stand
living the life i am able to create
following the call of love is never foolish
i did my best with what i am the dream is still my wish
whatever you were i will always be loving myself better than you can
I release the hope
But I am not ghost or shadow
I am slow
Finding my way
God gives me the wind to float
He carries me on
He knows what I was doing all along
I need a man who can finish that song
I need a man who is strong
I realize we aren't meant to be in that desired destiny
Yet I still love thee
for hate can never be a part of me
he woke me up while I was asleep
gave me a few sweet kisses and days of dreams
But see he doesn't choose me
he tells me he will move away to Manteca in a year
How sad this news is my dear
but what can be said here
it seems everything is clear
I am not the one he wants
but his texts say different
but we cant be someone we are not
we can't just pretend to know how to love
even in this ache
I still love you all the same
so I am not broken
no part of me will ever be stolen
I will not hang myself from the tree
nor drown in the sea
I was never inspired by Ophelia because I am strong and free
forever in my freedom I breathe with gratitude
though my heart wears the scars
In His hands I am free from the doom
He was in my way
Hiding in my drive way at my gate
It will never be clear why
I just couldnt get that dream life
i realize it wasn't meant for me
so I am not crying now you see
I was riding the flow and was affected emotionally
Where have all the strong men gone?
Why have we forgotten the love?
So many playing games
not in the right mind
me searching like Gollum
for my golden ring
like always coming up with nothing
This is my vomit on the page
After he told me he will be moving away
Well thanks for thinking of me today
Even in this small way.
Even if our love couldnt bloom friendship will still be great
i wish you well and this will be the end of a very sad love tale.

After an affair, it is better to stay friends at its end. No reason to hate. Bitterness just causes baggage. I like the resolve here to get up dust yourself down and get on with it. That shows strength of character butterfly. Your wings may feel fragile but you can still fly.
