She didn’t want to do it, but had no other choice
He took away her soul, he’d never claim her voice
So many wasted hours, spent in strife, discord
Too many days of bitterness, falling on her sword
Knew the time had come, to get out, make a new start
And as the final door closed, so did her broken heart
June Writing Prompt – And as the final door closed, so did her heart – Day 14/30

Too many hearts remain broken for too long, not knowing when it is time to move along. Nice writing 🙂

Thank you, David. I think it’s always the fear of being alone that keeps them in the relationship. If only we didn’t know loneliness.
