in the moment of leaving

i knew that i could love her more fully
if we were not lovers
that my healing had been complete
her love had given me a reminder of being lovable
even as the partnership was growing thin
i knew she would always be a friend
we said goodbye after breakfast
both shed a tear
and promised to keep each other updated
on progress
toward finding real love
