Moving Apart

Short sad poem written for a contest

My love I love you so

And I don’t want to go

But in my heart of hearts I know

It’s time to let you let me go

So far- we came so far

Our love shone like the brightest star

And it breaks my aching heart

To know our lives must be lived apart

I'm not one for soppy writing, but felt like taking up the challenge! Any good? Did you cry? ; )

Nice, it actually brought me very close to tears.....Short but powerful, like a punch in the chest and yet melancholy....Very good, especially considering your inexperience. I am impressed! Great work as always Spence, nice to see youre trying something new too. It might have been written for the contest, but I think its a good stand-alone poem too.
