How Do We?

How do we begin to let go,
loosen grip,
pull back,
simply pretend it doesn’t matter,
when it does?

How do we withdraw,
untangle,
unwind,
rewind
our unforgettable love?

How do we move forward,
move separately,
step away, yet
still dwell
together
in each other’s hearts?

How do we say,
Hello,
Good morning,
Goodbye,
Goodnight?
It sounds so different now.

How do we make ourselves move, when we don’t want to go;
when we just want to run
back into each other’s arms?

How do we go back to
just being friends,
when it’s anything but
what we want?

How do we begin to breathe,
when our chests cave in,
our weary hearts now denied
our love?
The pain doesn’t quell, tears still well.
This love much greater than us.

Please just tell me,
How do we?

We tried once.

To walk it back.

To focus on the lives in front of us.

She left.

7000 miles, opposite sides of the globe.

It didn’t stop our hearts.

We were the thing worth saving.

So we did.
