Letting Go


How do I say goodbye -
When I don’t want to let you go?
How do I walk away -
With still so much to know?

My illusions shattered -
The dreams, they come to an end.
Trying desperately to pick up the pieces -
And move forward once again.

Not hearing your voice pains me -
Your scent lingers in my head.
Your eyes full of confusion -
The sting of the last words you said.

So tell me how I let you go -
When all I want is to hold you now?
To feel your touch soft upon my skin -
Can someone please just tell me how?

I know my life will go on -
And all things work together for good.
At least that’s what they tell me -
Trying hard to believe…just as I should.

What will bring about the closure -
Something new or will it just grow old?
Will it hurt worse than it hurts right now-
Or will my feelings finally turn cold?

I guess it becomes a matter of time -
Day by day, walking some imaginary line.
Living “as if” to convince myself -
Until it finally rests somewhere in my mind.

Know that I have loved you -
With more heart than I knew was there.
Grateful still for the experience -

And all there was to share.
