I just let go of someone whom I at one time really loved. I had no choice because everything I once felt about them had died but in my mind I thought just maybe just one more try because I felt so bad about leaving this person. In a sense I still love James and I probably always will but your poem just enlightend the reality that I made the right decesion. I was feeling kind of blue today until I read this poem. I just want to say thank you.
