Step back now
Turn away and go.
I do not see how
You could possibly show
Any less love for me
Than you do now.
Step back now
Start to run
All loving has ended
And the hatred
Long since begun.
Nothing left now
To keep you here with me
Step back and go now
I don't want your company.
Go now, while you can
Before I begin to weaken
And remember that man
That once you were
But he has disappeared
Just a shadow of him remains
I no longer want you here
Go now ,you cause me too much pain.

This is such a sad and emotional poem. And your author note makes it even moreso. There's no joy in living in a loveless relationship so why do we remain? ... habit... insecurity... a feeling of responsibility. I suppose there as many reasons/excuses as there are such relationships.
A very good piece, Sylvi, Good job
love and

There was poetic observation not necessarily from close at hand.

Sentiments well expressed in these lines - easy to read and understand what you are going through just now. So sad, but a good out I think.
