The Closure
By saltyman65
Breaking up;
Subtle,
Like a brick through a window.
Painless;
As salt in a wound….a rapier though
the heart.
To die is easy,
To end is death…..Silence is golden on baited breath.
Sorrow is forgotten tomorrow,
time stands still till then.
The rooster crows no more.
The
curtain
descends…..for a proper closure,
but not an untimely
end.

A great opening line. Because there is nothing subtle about a break up. My relationship ended recently and it was painless. I was very numb to it. Although in my times of lonliness i do miss her. Your poem reminds me of that day in so many ways. I believe this is what it's all about, reaching and toughing others through words.
