No Turning Back Poem by susette varga

No Turning Back



When she says her goodbye
She cries no more tears
Her soul is bled dry
Confronts all her fears

She places no blame
On previous mistakes
Respects your decision
Of your need to leave

She knows that no one
Can be relied on
She understands relationships
Are temporary

Embraces the fact
The right people
Will stay

If your decision
Is to leave
She knows she'll
Meet new people
Along the way

She is not afraid
To start again
As with every ending
There is a new beginning

This woman
Will never be left behind
Taken for granted
For such a short time

She has no regrets
Of days gone by
She loved you then
Cherished memories
Will always be mine

assuming mine IN LAST LINE refers to the same person mentioned in the 3rd person throughout the poem, i find it very interesting you finally switched to 1st person. i like it after having my doubts for a few moments. to MyPoemList. but you DO GO from temporary in stanza 3, to will stay in stanza 4. it's ok, i GUESS, but i'd feel better if you'd added long enough after stay. i ALWAYS stay long enough in my marriages; ok, sometimes TOO LONG! ! BRI (:
