she waited and waited
for a few kind words from him
like drops of water in the scorching desert
none were forthcoming
with resignation and a certain relief
she's calling it a day
hoping
for some well deserved peace
Cinquain
no more
gone on too long
no good has come from this
time to call it a day and say
goodbye
All things come to those who wait...unfortunately, it's mostly crap.
ReplyDeleteThere does come that point......relief and peace does often follow. It is why I remain a hermit. Smiles.
ReplyDeleteMy heart breaks for that wilted sunflower. :(
ReplyDelete"Good-bye" sounds like the write word to sing, or hum.
This is so poignant.. sigh..
ReplyDeleteSometimes one has to call it a day.
ReplyDeleteThat poor sunflower! It seems saying goodbye and peace means the same thing.
ReplyDeleteThis was a deep heart breaker.
ReplyDeleteOh sigh. On to the next.
ReplyDeleteArriving at the point of ending a relationship leaves us soul pained.
