The unlove letter



My thoughts of us were forever
From the minute the ring was placed and snuggled on my finger
But that is now a distant memory
My finger is now barren and no longer bears the ring of forever
I wish I knew what your thoughts were?
Because my thoughts were of you forever
I wanted forever with you
if forever seemed too overwhelming for you
We could have taken baby steps until we came upon the threshold of forever
and
Entered forever’s door unaware, unannounced, and unnoticed
I loved you enough to warm you up to forever
Make you comfortable with forever
How do I unplan my love?
How do I erase countless memories from existing in my head?
How do you undo a family?
Unplan vacations?
Unplan anticipated romantic outings?
How do I unplan the anticipation I had of us?
5 years from now, 10 years from now, and forever
All I have left is the stain of pained memories
Of forever never happening
