So this is the end
The bitter conclusion
No playing pretend
Maintains this illusion
Distance is dread
Time equates fear
Hope hung by a thread
Now we find ourselves here
Giving up we accept
Giving in we agree
To allow disconnect
To set ourselves free
Nights of constant regret
Days of endless rain
Bring forth the onset
Of perpetual pain
One last time we shall stare
Into fading hope eyes
One last time we shall share
Such heartbroken cries
So now it has ended
We sever accord
This love we have tended
Now dies by the sword
About the Creator

Tea set by a suffragette
Pankhurst is a name well known to the history of women’s suffrage. Who hasn't heard the name Emmaline Pankhurst, founder of the Women's Social and Political Union (WSPU), an all-women organisation campaigning for the right to vote? The group that helped to achieve the right to vote for women in Great Britain and Ireland in 1918. Some know of her daughter Christabel, both being honoured by the Pankhurst memorial in Victoria Palace Gardens, London, right next to the UK Parliament buildings. Sylvia Pankhurst is notably not included in the monument. Why? Because she split with the WSPU to campaign against Britain's entry into First World War.
