Parting

"You and I assumed forever
When we became companions.
But now, unhappy, you are leaving.
The sky turns to bitter candescence,
Unslaked by resignation."

Having been blessed now with a life companion, I am learning better and better how to let go of relationships when needed. It's sad to me how easily that can be done these days, with the touch of "Delete" on a social media account. Having been, apparently, "unfriended" by two people in as many days, plus many more during my years of Facebook use, I seek to reinforce a lesson in non-attachment:  Wish people the best and send them on their way. Be grateful for blessings received and lessons learned. Best of all...
