Joe, that is just breathtaking. What an incredible catharsis. I’ve read many things about the disintegration of love, the falling away – but never anything so utterly raw and weeping as this. Such detail and emotion. The final freedom you describe is so anticlimactic, so real in its hollowness. The wound is so visible, the pain so palpable.
Second person narrative is hugely effective here. It magnifies the emotion of your piece considerably.

The beauty of love is all that we imagine. The death of love is never what we thought.
Thank you for reading (my writes often ramble), and sharing your thoughts and compliments with me.Here’s to the sweetness of the dream. 🍻 Cheers!

Glad to share my summer and my Joe speak with you. Its funny that one day pain doesn’t hurt anymore, except sometimes. But if it didn’t hurt, was love really real?
To summer! 🍻 cheers!

Yes! I agree, let’s make sure those we love know how much we treasure them, while there is time.
Admittedly I struggled to read this through. The emotion is so incredibly palpable here, each word a pang of familiar grief.
If this is a personal loss for you – condolences , myfriend.
