Fireflies at Midnight




I have always believed that relationships are like mini classrooms in our lives and that life has a funny way of sending us signs when class is coming to an end.

For most people change can be a very scary thing - so much so it makes us slow down our time line of growth and progress. It’s important to know that we have completed our lessons in a relationship and are graduating to the next level/experience. Which is why it has always brought me comfort to know that it’s never a failure when a relationship ends — more a graduation day for lessons well learned. In the end, it all comes down to free will along with the grace and courage to move forward in a new positive direction, blessing the past and embracing the future.

I wrote this poem to celebrate my graduation day from someone I can only describe as unforgettable. I will forever be grateful for the lessons he taught me.



She held on until it was time to go
What else could she do?
There was nothing left to say
And she knew he felt it too
The silence between them fell so hard
With winter coming on
There was nothing left to keep them there
Now all the love was gone

How do you stop your heart from breaking
When you know it’s for the best?
Can we truly embrace the pain of love
Or do we just care a little less?
Sometimes I wonder where love goes
And why it takes so long
To forget that certain someone
When everything you shared was wrong

Maybe love walks beside us
Until the sun can shine again
To hold us tight in memories
And be our secret friend
Or maybe it just pulls away
Fading slowly from our sight
So gradual we never notice
Until we find the one that’s right

In the end it takes some faith
Things happen when they should
If we believe something better waits
We open our hearts to good
When one door closes, another one opens
I’ve know that all along
And with this thought I can now walk alone
Forever staying strong

So thank you for your patience
Teaching me all I need to know
I will never forget how kind you were
As you helped my soul to grow
A better teacher I never had
Which is why its been so hard
To forget you and just let you go
You are forever in my heart

I thank you for my graduation day
It’s finally here my friend
I love you for everything you were
The lesson will never end
So take these words and hold them tight
You helped me find my way
Class is over and the bell has rung
Here’s to a brand new day
