An Ammicable Farewell

“Once Upon a Dream”
MG
03/29/09

I’m so far from angry;
I’m peaceful; unfraid,
Nor am I grieved it ended.
I’m thankful that we gave
The best shot we could give to “us”
And give our all we did.
The stars did not align for us,
With distance and with kids
At forefront of our parting words,
And weighing on our minds.
In the end, it’s different things
We’re wanting out of life.
I don’t fault you for leaving.
Nor did I want to stay
In a relationship that was
So miles and miles away.
And not just geographically,
But ultimately, now
We’ve seen that we are out of sync,
And gracefully bowed out.
I do love and miss you, friend,
Our memories do gleam.
Please, know that I’ll remember you
Once upon a dream.
