Routes

Despite what you've done,
I harbor no resentment
here in my bruised heart.

Acceptance
hurts.
But not as much
as carrying the weight of anger.
Bitterness is a heavy cloak
I've never chosen to wear.

Even in my aching moments,
I only hope your fragile wings
will one day have the strength to fly.

I too, am testing my own strength,
and finding my own course in life.

Bitterness is a heavy cloak ... beautiful, Lucy. ♥

when we become interlaced with another, separation is usually complicated, like trying to untangle each strand in a pile of vines that creeps up the side of your house......even if we wanted to only thin them, we would inevitably kill a few we may have wanted to leave alone.....

letting go is essential to survival.....letting go of anger, grudges.....
they will ultimately do more harm than the breakup........tender work, lucy
