All we have shared
Has made us who we are.
And I give thanks that, together,
We have grown taller and stronger.
But our growth is not
Dependent upon each other.
You may choose to grow with me still,
Or far away instead.
But I cannot forget
and I refuse to regret
The love we shared —
The love I hope to share again.
