A Note To My Love Poem by Pauline Levesque

A Note To My Love



Now that it is over, I am startled by how deep the pain goes.
I know eventually it will subside,
That I will want to live again but
For now, I feel sick.
My head is pounding, my stomach is churning
And it feels like what I think dieing would be like.

I will keep busy….
I will not stop moving for the next few weeks
And allow exhaustion to be my friend so I can sleep.

You say it’s a break, I say it’s the end.
The things that are tearing us apart are fundamental.
We clash in those areas we shoudn’t.

This is not a poem. This is a note….thought’s?
Short of a miracle, I don’t see a solution and even though
I am a dreamer and an optimist, I don’t see a silver lining to this love story.

I am realistic when need be and strong for myself when there are no answers.
But the tears still come and will for awhile.
Love doesn’t evaporate just because we wish it so but…
I will wish anyway because that is what I do…

I will hope because that is what I do….
And I will wonder what if because that is what I do.

Even though we have known each other for such a short time,
The love is true and deep and will not dissipate easily.
I will do as you ask and not call or contact you because I respect your wishes but
I will hope that someday you will come back and stand before me with renewed love
And energy and hope that maybe we can change those things that keep us apart.

Even though I doubt a wonderful end to our story, I will hold out for the glimmer of possibilities…..…always the optimist.
