The Door To Love
The door to love, gone past it's prime
Should be closed.
The memories alone should keep that love alive.
End it, before the embers die.

If you should need to leave, or say goodbye
Do not be distraught.
For I have harvested memories so grand,
That they alone will sustain me,

And leave me with smiles and sparkling eyes.
I would never be alone,
For I have memories to call upon.
A gift to me from you.

I felt a tightness in my throat, a twinge in my solar plexus ~ and a stirring in my heart as I read your touching poem.

Keep the warm, loving thoughts in your heart for safe-keeping.

Sea, Nancy, Thank you for understanding this. It is for my late husband, who had no choice but to leave me, for a dear woman friend dying of cancer and for a brief love affair shared in between those times. It fits all I think..best martyjo

Margherita, thank you for your kind words. I have been around long enough to know that, what ever love we receive from others should be treated as a cherished gift. Sometimes it is time to go on , for what ever reason. We need to learn to let that other person go unselfishly. When it is time for someone to die it is only our selfishness that clings to their life.The same if it is time for them to move on in other ways. Just my opinion. best, marty
