A new start

to be free
I threw
the last stone
into our glassy
swallow pond
murky with the lies
we’d tried to build
a life around.

Ripples of freedom
sent to my heart
my soul
will be happier
That we will be
forever apart.

To be free
you won’t be there
any more
I don’t wish
to say goodbye.

Or see you
just one last time
like all the times before
You didn’t
even know me
Nor did You
ever try.

You needed me
you would say
Now we will never
forever ….find out why?

Hi, lastrun,
murky with the lies we’d tried to build a life around is so telling. A new start is in order.
