It is often very hard to let go when the good memories abound more than the tears. Well done, dear Brenda. I like the refrain, 'Why is it so hard to let you go?' Thanks for sharing your work.

Thank you for your nice review. It is so hard to end a long term relationship.
Comment from Nicki.B
Wow! This is one that many will perceive in different ways I'd imagine. The fact the so much has been shared been two people, the question is why oh why after all those years one would feel the need to let go after spending most of their loves together. Others might say good on you, you needed to break away and feel the freedom and breath again as the person walking away may have wanted to leave with cars bit couldn't find the right time. Excellent poem, whether or which it would be still so hard to let go no matter what. Well done
Best Wishes

My heart goes out to you, I'm so sorry you have to go through this. There must be someone you can talk to somewhere to turn! This poem feels like a cry for help out of a trapped situation. I truly hope you get the help you need Brenda , please take care xxx
Comment from Barry Penfold
Good straightforward poem about a particularly difficult situation. The time you know there is only one way a relationship can go. Letting go.
I certainly have reached such a situation before. Many of us have no doubt been there. Your poem reminded me and tugged a little at my heartstrings.
Take care and have a wonderful day.
Regards
Barry Penfold.

One thing I'll promise you. If you ever discover the answer to this question, you will achieve both wealth and fame. You will also have a world-wide best-seller.
A word of encouragement however, every day from now on will become easier. Not easy though, just easier.

Comment from June Sargent
When a bond has been strong enough to include great grandchildren, ur would defybe hard to let go. Matters involving the heart cannot be easily dismissed. The head knows, but the heart denies the need to move on. Very touching poem.

Comment from Begin Again
I believe there is something in us that believes that giving oneself to someone and declaring love is sacred and meant to last forever, but unfortunately, at times, it doesn't remain true. We want it to, and a small part of our heart tries to hold on, but it generally loses the battle in the end.
Smiles, Carol

Thank you Carol, for this very nice review. I tried and tried to make it work, but I'm tired and can't do it anymore. I lost myself in this marriage.

It happens ...I know...I was there in my first marriage (23 yrs) but he didn't want to pay any attention to his children and that just wasn't okay with me.

Comment from RJ Heritage
Letting go someone you love is never easy to do. I had to fo it twice in my life, and each time it was extremely difficult and heartbreaking. But in doing just that the Lord blessed me with the most beautiful person of my life. Your words are quite relatable and presented well.

Comment from Wendy G
The pain and grief is very real, and adjustment after such loss is hard. Sometimes so much of our lives has been intertwined with another that it is really hard to let go and to continue to live in a positive way. Very well expressed.

Thank you Wendy. It is so hard to let go of a marriage of 49 years. But it is for the best. I try and think about the good things.
