Such a bond is the greatest human connection we will ever experience and it's so sad if it breaks. I believe that in the heart it still remains as reflected by your last lines. Well thought out and well penned.

Such a soulful write! This comes from your heart and it touches the heart.

Love ya!

Perhaps you are still linked. But I'm not sure whether she is alive or not. But it makes no difference. You are alone and you are comforted by writing this poem.

Your acceptance of the failed relationship shows maturity and no bitterness. Life goes on, and so do you.

Tender and touching, and a touch of melancholy.

Very tender and very touching. You have captured here the elusive spirit of missing someone. Your brevity belies its depth on this one.

This is a good inspiring poem, Jerry.

This touched me, Jerry, for I have an Ex that I often think of hoping she is in a good space. Perhaps our former relationships are very different in place and time, but for compassionate people, the care for the well being of another one has thought well of is never waning. Thank you for the reminder of how important it is for those of us with unrequited love to still respect. In my case, I've been blessed with a redeeming presence of Danae, giving me the kind of determination that older age needs... to become older happier than one has ever been. She gave me that. I hope you might be as fortunate, for you are one who has seen the results of your growth with renewed excitement for what's ahead. For one such as you, all of aging time should aspire. Inspiring recall for us all this piece of wordsmithing you so adroitly laid out on screen's projection is there to behold, accept, and embrace. Kudos, Jerry.
