No big bang of inception
No explosion of brilliant fire
No rattling of the well-worn cage
No massacre of the village within
Just a slow dissolution of the union
A trickle of care that slowly stops
A waning light that is extinguished much too late
An unintended erosion of a fanciful dream
No fatal blow to the heart
No furtive jolt to the senses
No cutting with razor sharp words
No high drama reality show
Just a feeling that can’t be revived
A silence that doesn’t want absolution
An alliance that can’t be maintained
The quiet recognition of farewell
