Finally

It took a long time for me,
But I finally got there.
Letting go of the hand,  
Feeling the fingers  
And the memories slip away,  
Setting the poems on fire,  
Letting the feelings smolder
Before becoming cold,
Saying, "Goodbye"
Turning and walking away,  
Not looking back,  
Ending the story,
It's hard to believe
After all we’ve been through
We’d end up as strangers again.
Moving on.
Finally, letting go,
Finally, . . . over you.
