I feel you moving on, a gentle tide that carries you to shores I cannot see.
The distance grows, yet I don't run or hide from this truth that sets us both free.
Our paths diverge, like rivers to the sea, each seeking its own destiny, its way.
Though bittersweet, I know that this must be, and so I whisper softly, "That's okay."
For love sometimes means loosening our hold, allowing growth, even when apart.
Your happiness, more precious than gold, eases the ache within my heart.
So go, explore the wide and wondrous world, unfurl your wings and chase your distant dreams.
I'll cherish what we had, memories unfurled, and smile, knowing things aren't always as they seem.
For in this ending, new beginnings wait, for you, for me, for all that's yet to come.
I feel you moving on, and I celebrate the journey you've only just begun.
