Clean Break

Because they can happen ....

I cared, I still do

Maybe too much, I guess

Which is why I'll leave you

Without making a mess

 

Pink roses I sent you

On your birthday

It was all I could do

Now they're withered away

 

So my parting present

To you is peace

From my heart sent

It was the least .....

 

(I'll never forget you, may tears turn to smiles)

Author's Note

I re-present this sentiment and pray for strength.

And I did give thirty last kisses ..... virtual (dammit).

Take care you. May you find the happiness you seek with whoever it ends up being.

awwww what a noble and sweet guy you are. a truly touching piece - don't make me reach for the kleenex here, I hate to cry - what a parting gift you give from your heart, peace. too often this is a gift never given by either party in a break-up. You rock!

*hugs*

You do something many men cannot do. I admire this tremendously! Actually I should have said that many/most people don't do it. You FEEL. You make yourself feel. when one does this one has a better handle upon life.

That is the best present you could ever give to someone you once loved, and still do.

You have a softy side that is really wonderful, J.
