By Charles Robert Lindholm
life without U
seems _nimaginable
_ndeniably painf_l and sad
yo_r leaving me
was _nforseeable
I was totally _nprepared
for the _nanticipated
anno_cement that o_r
life together was over
this _nwelcome decision was
not _nanimo_s and was _nwanted by me
this was the _ltimate shock
my sorrow was _ndisg_ised and _ncontrolled
_nderstandably this is not what I want
the tho_ght of being _nmarried to yo_
is almost _nbearable and yet
if yo_ choose to be _ncommitted to me
there is no other choice b_t to _ntie
o_r lives from each other
and go o_r separate ways
I need U
everything feels different witho_t U
_nfamiliar, _nsatisfying and _ninspiring
I feel _nf_lfilled, _nhappy and _nloved
life witho_t U
is not what I want
b_t I m_st accept it
and move on
there’s a part of me
that will always miss U
and the love and life we shared
I miss U
I miss “_S”
