The last letter

She tried to hold the heaviness in her

with every word that she read,

But before the stanzas end

she could feel her eyes wet,

It was short, it was sweet

had all the memories bitter and sweet,

the glory of love they lived

but was the last letter she'll ever receive

She is so lucky that she knows

for she was adored by him so

cannot deny the truth he said

neither can kill the affection she gave

for every word he wrote with love

made her fly like a free dove

Every word that he inscribed

Every phrase that she read

Whispered of the happy yesterday

But a sad today

Words by words she read the letter

it wrote "I broke up for your better"

"Emotionless I may seem"

"But what we shared is now just a dream"

 She knew how much they loved each other

but still they could not be together

They endured an ecstasy yesterday

but a sorrowful today

knowing that they have ended what they had

they both are still helplessly in love

though it would just be a pain to add

She held the letter close to her chest

the last letter she'll ever get

closed her eyes as the tears dropped

for a moment the time stopped

"we have set our ways separate"

"But I'll love you till the end"
