"My Sister, My Friend, Goodbye"

I can breathe easily
and be free of troublesome thought
now that I've broken off
my piece of our heart.
It was distressing at first
To find it simple to sever
a bond
I believed to be forged
in support, shared tears
triumphs and secrets.
It was plain
that I adored and
admired you
as if our ties were sanguineous,
fiery and genuine.
Sister of my soul and wishes
I loved you fiercely
I knew this with not one doubt.
Shattering the illusion
that those bindings were strong,
everlasting
was a relief, a release.
So now I may finally say the goodbye
I had never truly wished for.
