Release.

Fay Slimm.

Release.

Wilted
has love,

starved

it sickened.

Weight of
result

is now

significant

How often
my heart

saw this

and

sighed.

Does release
feel the

better

for bitter

goodbyes ?

Good write Fay.

Yes.. in a word!... and then NO! For, as you well know, love is too complex for rules.
You teaser! This short piece took some reading. I thought you had lost me with this but i read and re-read until ... well ... to mis-quote a phrase overused by a certain MPS writer 'persistence was key'.

Loves complex nature can give all types of emotions within our hearts.

Goodbyes oft taste bitter, rarely have I known a sweet one....

well penned my fine literary friend... Neville
