Description I kissed you one last time before turning around.
I heard your nose make that little cracking sound, as so many times before.
I realized how your beard were looking nice and neat
and I tried to make some jokes about how we did this all backwards.

We started out as a couple, saying how much we loved each other
after time it faded into us being really close friends
and I can live with that.
Which is why I made the decision I made.

It is hard. It was hard.
But I believe with all my heart that this is for the better.
We'll be fine.
We'll still have each other.
Just not in the same way as we used to.

It's just so simple that I need to not feel guilt.
I need to not take care of you as much as I have.
You need to lift yourself up, and I will help
but I'd rather be a crutch for support than to lift you
as if I were an elevator.

It sounds stupid. But to me it makes more sense than we did
during these last couple of weeks.

I kissed you one last time and when I turned around we saw that deer.
Looking at us, and I felt peaceful.
I felt like it didn't matter that the cracking sound your nose made
probably was the last time I'll hear it.

I like this.  It's sad yet hopeful.  Good work on this.
