Safely Dismount

Not for lack of trying

I stayed in the saddle vying 

As the match for the stallion

I believed in my heart

Embracing his lightness

Avoiding his dark

As time built a pattern

I spotted a clue

This was not sustainable

I'm sure he already knew

His desires I could no longer fulfill

This didn't matter for I loved him still

I released him decisively to relieve the burden

Of being the only outlet for needs

Surpassing my ability to balance it out

I split into the wild to find a new route

For my own well being I will safely dismount.
