space finally

years and years and then.....

sometimes a person stays inside you   your thoughts and your cares and your questions and fears

then  Oh, the feeling of air and lightness when   he flies away

to his home, or to another

and finally you_  so busy with other internal things

have supremely 

 lost  him

and now.  just  my weary shoulders shrug

instead of those  ever lasting  imaginary hugs

[sette]

nice written poem marilyn it talks about realization too late. but sometimes love can be like that because we know we are not perfect.

love can linger for decades in someone's heart but if it leaves it can be a new feeling of hope and freedom sometimes in does not leave thanks for your always super kindness with your reviews
