Closed

I knew
when it became so easy
to close the door
without watching you leave

No heartache.
Or memories.
It is only your absence
that even reminds me
that we shared another empty moment

Such a stark difference between
now
and when your love
would hurt me so much
I love this new-found freedom from us.
As there never really was an us, was it?
Just words. I smile not feeling a need to wonder
why
or what if. There are no more possibilities.
Yes, this time
it was easy
for the curtains to remain closed
