Simply Gone
Someone came into your life
and you thought you've found the person
who could share a lifetime with you.
But an unexpected circumstance caused an untimely end.
The more you tried to work things out...
the harder the relationship to survive.
It's better to part ways than be together miserable.

Such a nicely made poem but with a very sad ending. Well, maybe in some cases, being away is a way to grow and who knows it might be the growth we need to rediscover love once again.
ReplyDeleteSad ending... that's true and the girl in this picture... she's the inspiration. she had two kids and living in Canada now. She's survived being a single parent.
DeleteAhw... that's so sad. :(
ReplyDeleteLOVE isn't always a bed of roses... there are thorns that hurt. Sometimes, it's better to let go.
DeleteHi Ms. Marri.. May I ask.. was this poem written for someone specific? It sounds really sad.. :(
ReplyDeleteActually, I dedicate this poem to those who love so much and can hardly let go... but the girl in the picture sacrificed her love for the future of her kids. I'm sure, LOVE will eventually find her.
DeleteI really felt sad reading this poem Mai, hope to read happy one's too =)
ReplyDeleteYou are a good writer =)
I'm sorry to make you feel unhappy with this poem. LIFE and LOVE can give us pain but the positive side of letting go is... moving on and standing up for every fall.
Deletewow! you're so romantic. I love the poem's flow. Heartfelt one kahit na sad ang ending.
ReplyDeleteBased on true story po kasi...
DeleteAwwwww got touched after reading the poem :(
ReplyDeleteWhen a person is in loved... sentiments truly rule the heart.
DeleteWhat can i say? That's a straight from the heart poem of someone who used to love.
ReplyDeleteThe truth is... we all felt this lonesome emotion.
Deleteawww, sad to hear that you need to break apart. hope you'll find another lover again.
ReplyDeleteLetting someone free is not the end of the world but a best time to start anew.
DeleteWhy is it that we cannot do anything when love is simply gone? The more we try to hold on to it, the more it is forced out of our hands.
ReplyDeleteThere are things that are not meant to be, Ms Teresa. But, there are things that we deserve and we just have to be patient... it will surely come in HIS time.
Deletethere's always going to be someone else. (yeah, and i'm talking to the lady who is looking away while sitting by the grass)
ReplyDeleteCertainly... someone more deserving to love.
DeleteLovestruck brings forth powerful eloquence.
ReplyDeleteWow!!! So deep... LOVE and its mysterious ways truly make someone very poetic and creative.
DeleteAww. This reminds me of a song, "I'd Rather Leave While I am in Love".
ReplyDeleteI am not so familiar of the song lyrics but yeah... it's better to leave a relationship bound to break if there's still respect left rather than everything is gone and only hatred remains.
DeleteSo sad. Unfortunately for me, whenever something ends there's always a little anger left...
ReplyDeleteOuch! PAK! Sobrang TAMA yun ah. WE need to be apart to mend our broken heart. Haytz. ^_^
ReplyDeletesometimes some memories do linger and you become nostalgic of the feelings that were associated with them... and it makes you sad and gloom of those happy times together...
ReplyDeleteYou got my full attention while reading your poem. But this has sad part...
ReplyDeleteI shouldn't have read this on a Sunday night :( Still, a wise runner once told me, "if there's an uphill, there's a downhill".
ReplyDeletesounds like a great loved that left so many mem'ries... it made an ending a sad one... but surely one will come to make sweeter memories... the best is yet to come...
ReplyDeleteWell, in every moment that we fall down, there's always a chance to stand up and face the future! Cheer up! Life is very good for us to be sad! :)
ReplyDeleteSometimes letting go is the best thing to do. It may cause a lot of pain but as the song goes, "there's a rainbow always after the rain"
ReplyDeleteSad ending .A love thta fades away.I hope they find time to love each other again or find a happy life separately.
ReplyDeleteThis is nice, but sad. The song "Where Do Broken Hearts Go" came into my mind after reading this...
ReplyDeleteTo me it tells about a love between two people that simply went away and they had to separate ways.. not because there's a third party or any other issue.
ReplyDeletePoem that makes someone's heart twitch a bit. Nicely done but message is kinda sad.
ReplyDeleteseems that the poem is reaaly personal and based on your experience... time will heal and mend the hurting ... scars are left to remind of the lessons we learned from it .
ReplyDeleteThe place looks familiar but I can't remember where I've seen it? Where did you take this picture?
ReplyDeleteIt just reminded me of Arvil Lavinge' song "Happy Ending"
ReplyDeletesaddest part of life... but you can always choose to be happy
