Free to Choose, Free to Be

His apology echoed in the winter's chill,
A timing wrong, yet a void to fill.
He asked for understanding, for a heart to mend,
For our paths to diverge, for the longing to end.

Yet within me, a storm did rage,
A silent scream, trapped in a cage.
The pain cut deep, to my very core,
My body trembling, my heart sore.

Oh Matthew, what have you done?
You were my moon, my stars, my sun.
But I can't blame you, for you are free,
To choose your path, to simply be.

I can't blame you for the love I feel,
For the wound that aches, for the hurt that's real.
For you deserve all the love the world can give,
And I must find a way to live.
