Silence whistling past my ears
To think finally
I have some resolution
The beauty of what I always wanted
Is finally here to stay
I don't feel scared
Is that normal?
Does it even matter anymore?
I'm sorry I had to leave you
But....
This is what I needed
I've had the cravings for quiet some time
And the deprivation is making me weak
I fight and hold on
But this is the final time we'll say goodbye
This will be the last time
We make each other cry
I love you more than anything
And I'm so sorry I had to do this
But you must realise at this moment
The peace I feel
The calmness in my mind
Sorrow grasped me tightly
And wrapped itself around me like chains
It's dragging me down now
I have run from sorrow
And tried to bring you too
But it will always find us
There is no escape
Except for this one last course of action
The silence, it is so beautiful
The calm, no where in the world can you find it
My tears have been shed
The blood has leaked out
It is time I forgot my scars
And moved on
Do not follow me down this drop
I love you too much for that
I'm not scared you know
Smile for me my dear
Do not cry
I love you more than anything
And this will be our final goodbye
And finally there is calm

*sighs* I'm very relieved that you're not at this stage. That scared me a lot when I was reading it. You really are an amazing poet, a beautiful young woman, and a best friend. And I do believe that reading your poems again has given me some inspiration, for my poetry has been very poor lately. I may be able to start writing again, thanks to you, darling.
Love you SO much!!!
