Changing Course

Baby steps,
Quietly retreating with care -
A little here, a little there.
My grip is slipping,
I keep on tripping,
How far should I reach out my hand?
Waves wash imprints from sand,
Until only one set remains.
How did I not see,
I'm not as important to you as you are to me?

Baby steps are all it takes to change a path.

This I can relate to. Friends of ours have just split after 20 years of marriage, she is devastated he is moving on at a pace.
Nicely written

Sadly that's life, she just has to soldier on, if only for the three kids sake.
