Let's be friends

As with many others who have come before me and posted, experience has shown me that it varies, depending on how mutual the love was and the cause behind the separation.

Recently I broke up with a woman who I had to let go due to her parents strong opposition to their daughter dating a man outside her own race. The idea of their daughter dating a Mexican boiled their anger to a tee. But, what makes this hard for me when she wanted to stay best friends is that I can no longer keep her in the light that I used to have her in. As such, when I speak with her, I can't help but cry for losing her because of all the promises she made, and eventually broke.

She was so integrated into my very being, that I can't be best friends with her because of how she ended it with me. Yes my mind may be strong, but my heart is weak, and therefore I cannot speak with her. Maybe as the seasons pass, I'll be able to speak with her again as we used to in our college days....but until then, she nothing but lost thoughts in the midst of forgetfulness.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
