With my hand in your hand, for our promise land, those promises were kept.
Over the courses of our lives, I was getting low, you were getting high, one fine day, you simply left.
So here I am, I feel you, I feel your pain. I shall remember you and your name.
I see you leaving. I am not moving, I am staying with the blame.
But I, I wont stop you. You shall be gone, gone without remorse.
I don’t care if it’s getting worse.
See the calm before the storm, safely harbor, I am on my own,
When it’s all done, and if I’m not dead, I’ll lay here dying, painful and so slow.
And then, would you end it for me, with the sharpest arrow from your quiver, that is all I want to know.

Aw this is sad but hopeful. It’s hard to let go of someone you really love even though you don’t want to. Sigh. Anyway, this is very well written, as always, you’ve touched my heart again with those powerful words. Well done, Ankit 😊

Graci, you aren’t to blame for this sad post. It was my situation and the song. But the one you wrote, it had so much on me. I felt that voice and that scenario building. 🙂
Words, they can have so much influence, Its the power of words.

Oh God! You took me on such a journey. My heart broke and although Your words are beautiful and strong it felt so trite to click “like”. Because if You were sincerely in that much pain, I don’t applaud that You’re hurting! I did anyway, and then scrolled down to send some love and had a blast reading the comments. Whew!!! Okay. Well done, lovely and Cheers!!! 💖🤗
