Divorcing All Thoughts Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

My time spent with you,
I had come to value.
The walks and our talks,
Made it so real for me...
To believe together,
We would and could...
Accomplish to realize,
Dreams not impossible...
To see achieved before our eyes.
Then one day you made it known to me,
Success to achieve you can do independently.
And with me you were just fulfilling,
Another fantasy.
To then thank me for my time.
Well...
I did learn one thing,
Divorcing all thoughts I had of you...
Was not an expense,
Of emotions that stayed I had to pay.
And to you I thank,
For that reality.
