None too soon…
I felt the echo of his voice,
Vibrating the air with that solemn goodbye.
The burden I carried all long,
The inevitable end that came none too soon.
Shedding dry tears,
I bid back the harsh words.
As I turned my back,
I vowed never again.
The story has come full circle,
Nevertheless all so suddenly.
Emptiness I felt not,
For the bittersweet memories preserve me.
