Adieu

The sweetness of the end of winter

Just before spring was about to bud

That was when we met-you and I

Mildly flirting with one another

Intensified with ease-more than we realized

Our emotions took flight on the wings of love

Fanciful thoughts-lust filled evenings

That was such a wonderful time we had

Walks on the beach-even if it was cold

It was worth it as we warmed each other up

Over time our love deepened inside of us

Yet somehow we started to topple

Our communications faltered

Misunderstandings grew-tempers flared

We made up time and time again

Slowly we sank into a comfort zone

Lovers yet not-the carnal desire gone

We went deeper than lovers

We became true friends

Soul mates not twin flames

Letting go and saying good bye

The sadness is incredible-painful

It hits you between the eyes

When finally a truth is unveiled

Forcing you to finally say-adieu
