The End...

by Rod - Scorpio - Not entered

So many times, I cried and cried,
I really felt like I had died.
 
I couldn't bear to feel that way,
but what else could I do or say.

And then the day it finally came,
when I didn't tremble at your name.

Lettered arrogance and triumph, in it came,
and when I'd read, things just weren't the same.

And now I'm free, so I can be,
all the gifts, inside of me.

And all the Love, I hold inside,
now reserved, all for my bride.

Reason for writing:

    The end of a relationship. I endured a great deal, but took it all as I could feel myself growing. I got a letter one day which I thought was arrogant and triumphalist in tone, and I didn't like it. That helped me see the end had come. I haven't had many relationships in my life, and I've never been hurt by a woman before. It's made me better and stronger, but I don't want to be hurt again. I hope my next relationship is my last.
