A Sacrifice Made By an Ordinary Women


We were more than several years apart

 

Conversations discontinued my remembrance of past tribulations which generated a bleeding heart

 

With a simple touch of his hands time and time again, I felt his warmth spread throughout my whole being, his soul sustained mine

 

Trust of his affection lead by his very hear sheltered my own, he knew, and for that, I was given a ring of exquisite design

 

Believing that marriage isn’t sacred and not wanting children, I answered his everlasting oath of love with a no, for he wanted what I didn’t

 

My feelings for him doesn’t permit me to devalue the very things he inquired of the world

 

I ended it in an instant

 

I ended a love in its purest form and surrendered my wants for his needs

 

A love that will be embedded in my heart and woven into my soul for eternity, for love is one of the most selfless emotion this world offer

 

Yes, withdrew from this man because I loved him
