Goodbye love

I cannot lie. I feel naked without the familiar weight of those rings on my finger. The ones i toyed with for years when i was anxious or nervous; its smooth edges giving me a reassuring feeling that there would always be that one person who chose me for me. Who would support me and stand by my side through the rough and the storm.

I was wrong.

For the rings held no special power. The strong bond I imagine we had between us, was as brittle as rotting wood, crumbling into dust so fine by presssure so little.

After that instance, i had trouble letting go. The last remnant of what was, firmly sitting on my digit. Its magic gone, the weight became harder and harder to carry as the days passed.

Until finally. I had no choice but to admit that it was time to say goodbye. Those rings; those broken bonds i was desperately clinging to, were holding me back from my true happiness. So i swallowed my grief whole and i took those rings off.

Goodbye love.

Goodbye.
