The Sky Smiled

It’s a sunny, glowing and crisp day. Today I witnessed the release of a lovely soul. They knew her to be that of a pure vessel. Many had the opportunity to  be graced with her presence. Even I too had the chance to  have held her embrace and welcoming words of love.  I won’t do too much speaking about the one who’s no longer in the flesh…but what  I will do, is acknowledge the beautiful fellow human  beings that still roam the earth.

Daily Prompt: Subdued

via Daily Prompt: Subdued

Dear significant other,

I tried my very best to make sure that you had what you needed. I did all I could to make sure you were where you needed to be. I did everything you wanted me to do. Yet….here I am. Stuck. I never imagined that I would ever be in this predicament. How could this have happened? Where did it all go wrong? Who’s fault is this? Was it me? Or could it be you? So many questions….not enough answers. Did not we promise that we’d be together forever? Or was that our lust, and not love for one another? Is this punishment for something in my past? Or…maybe I am a  victim of your selfish gains. Makes no difference does it….we’ve both lost. We’ve both lost out on times of joy. We lost our ability to look one another in the eyes and see the love.  We just see hurt. We just see reflections of our faded past. You managed to have me subdued with contempt. I stayed still. I knew full well that the time was near for things to be different, but I kept it going. In this end, we both ended up with hurt. In ways that either of us would have imagined. I hope that on whatever paths we choose to take, we will never forget the love that was.

Yours truly,

Your Former Love
