the chill of your rejection
began some time ago
only now I face the truth
it is time for me to go

this heart has felt the sting
from the arrows of your betrayal
I thought my heart was hardened
and ready for this portrayal

but thus I find the pain too great
with tears unseen I walk away
I hope you have a wonderful life
I’ve loved you more than I can say.

Sharon, I know how this feels. I thought my heart had hardened, too. But, they always seem to know just how to get to us.

Thank you all for your kind comments. This is a work of fiction so I am sorry. I didn't mean to invoke your sympathy...

Truth or fiction, sometimes we're left with no choice but to walk away wondering, knowing we'll never know the whys and wherefores, only the wounds they've inflicted. *S*

Wonderful work, PDV... It sure is good to see you posting! *S*
