Sigh . . .
it is relief
to some degree,
but to sigh;
to give up on those
that have been placed high
upon some sort of uncanny platform,
that they are unable to deliver.
To wish upon other stars
that are aligned,
and sigh into the night.
While one facet of friendship fades
it is released into the universe with love and thanks.
The twinkling promise of new insight,
new bonds,
shaping into a sigh;
that is relief
and abandonment of pretense.
