I have been deeply touched by this solemn, somber poem and loved the dignity with which the poetess is letting her beloved 'go'- where, I do not know, but can guess, going to never return. An excellent poem. That it has flown out direct from the heart, readers can easily understand.

yes, even when seperated from love, memories do provide solace to the fatigued mind which does not nurse any regret. Beautifully expressed, Val.
