This pain is a jigsaw
This bond is a handcuff
This place is a death-trap
This window… is closed
This moment is endless
This feeling is crushing
This heart is failing
This window… is filthy
This love is spent
This union is ending
This sweetness has soured
This window… is painted
This want is obsessive
This change is approaching
This peace is shattering
This window… is cracked
This journey is over
This air is stagnant
This pressure is critical
This window… is shaking
This decade is wasted
This effort is thankless
This ‘us’ is in tatters
This window… is hinged?
This shoelace is tied
This suitcase is packed
This pocket is full
This window is…
This window is opening
This window is a door
This one is leaving
That one is staying
This window is a door
and I am walking through…

A bit different in style but the emotions are still there, walking through to a new beginning.

Thanks. I’ve tried all sorts over the years. But have settled into a more consistent voice these days.

Thanks Peter… I was very relieved to discover the window was a door and finally walk out of it, I can tell you…
