It is with a heavy heart I set my loved one free Free to choose his next true love Without my boundaries The walls fell down Our love torn apart With his words of anger He broke my loving heart In the beginning He was strong hearted and kind My inexperience with things Has put our marriage in a bind Days went by Gosh, they were great Now it seems it is all my fault He begins to show his hate If true love is eternal And stands the test of time Someday he'll come back to me Then his heart will be mine Oh, peaceful days Where have you gone? While I pray for your quick return Our lives must go on. |

There is no harm in letting someone go...they won't leave anyway if they're where they want to be...and hopefully good things will happen for you...James |

Melancholic, beautiful write. In the "letting go" lies your safety and peace. Meanwhile you live, yes. Love, Margherita |

True love is letting go if need be. We have to let our children grow and are proud when they are able to go on and live their lives. It should be the same with lovers, husbands or boyfriends or girlfriends..Same applies. I was told once by a very wise landlord to "give him enough rope". We were young marrieds and my husband was always going to ball games, hockey games, bowling, and movies with his friends. As I knew and liked his friends I said nothing but was home alone a lot.I took my landlords advice and all worked out in the end. best marty jo. |

true hurt is letting go... true love is when they come back. at least that's my experience with the thing. letting go is never as easy as it sounds it's gonna be, so i wish you courage and strength. as for your verse... it's not your fault. it's a two-way street. and i agree with shadows... this really does ache. we are what we seek |

Thanks evryone. Everything is fine, marriage wise. I wrote this poem in dedication to my dad. He still loves my mom very much, and would like to start over with her, but she won't. He just can't seem to take no for an answer. Thanks for the replies. |

Enjoyed this very tender write from your caring heart...Paul Perhaps one day all will be fine between them. Maybe they just need too try being friends first. Tell your Dad too put on his courting face. ~~To share my poems with you is to share my heart with you~~ |
