A Final Farewell

I was cleaning out my bookcase,
like I once cleaned out my heart.
I came accross your picture,
and it caused memories to start.
Memoies- not feelings,
For you, my heart's asleep.
The giant fist that clutched it once,
released the hurt so deep.

It has been a while since then,
I'm over you by now.
I had to learn to trust again,
I had forgotten how.

I'll put your picture back in place,
between the pages of my mind.
And forever leave you,
As you once left me-
  So very far behind.
