« it is a normal practice to love something and to let it go »

By Amber GracePublished 4 months ago • 1 min read

i will not follow you

the sign reads « do not enter »

instead, i’ll witness you,

and in letting go, remember,

to walk on towards all we could be

into what is, and is only me.

yes, alone .

we could have done this part together-

yes, i grieve .

because i mean it when i say forever -

onward now

strong enough somehow

to breathe

to just be.

Elegy
