A heavy weight lay upon my chest.
But then I gave a sigh. Of both, pain and of relief.
The pain of coming to an ending.
The relief of it all being over.
In the pain, I felt grief.
Of what was.
And of what could have been.
In the relief, I felt comfort.
Of letting go of expectations.
And the breaking of a long-held silence.
With that sigh, the weight was released.
In its place, peace took over.
