When your heart is turmoil 
 and your head a mess
 
when they both aint going in the same direction
 and all is a chaos...
 when you know you have got to do it,
 but you do not know how...
 when you grapple for support outside
 with a realisation however 
 that strength has to be seeked from within...
 when your heart bleeds to know
 what all you have to leave
 when memories kill you
 and the mere idea brings tears
 when you know it is not an end to one thing
 but many a things
 and you wonder what scares you more- 
 a life without it 
 or a life with its haunting memories..
 when you wish there was something, anything
 that would make this simpler
 which would pull you out
 without making you find that inner strength to do it
 Coz the inner strength shall not manifest itself,
 for, for long it has been derived from the very thing it now has to kill...
 complicated though it sounds
 it is as simple as that,
 An end to a lot of beautiful things
 A beginning to the unknown...

hey..I understand your poem and the very source it is coming from. Belive me, sometimes an end is a gift..it gives us a different view, a vision and immense learning and with all this we are all set to make a new begining.
