How easy it is,
Once proximity is a memory, ...
To let circumstances dictate.

I wish that I could
Return us to what we were and
Undo all that has happened.

I like the direction you went in your verse here. I enjoy free verse, although there are still some "rules", even with "free" verse. You traverse those well and presented this character as a full character, a character with a mystery.
