To broken heart

I used to take care of injured wild falcons. The goal was always to get them well enough to go back to the wild where they belonged. These birds are sensitive and can die in captivity. There always came the moment when they were released and it was always a happy one. Try to think of him as being one of these falcons who belongs somewhere else. We both know some things aren't meant to be, no matter how exquisite the possibilities. Eventually the falcon will want his freedom. A place and time for everything in this universe and we are bound by its laws. Sad lesson to learn.
