    I love the ideas behind this poem. The hardest part of love is learning to let go. The last stanza is simply amazing - I really loved every line and every word of this poem. It deserves 100/5!

    Aww dear so touching and heartful poem. wonderful feelings you have put in this poem. am sure it hurts to leave the one that you love most.

    my favorite part was the last:

    "To Let Go....Is not to adjust everything to my desires,
    but to take each day as it comes,
    and to cherish the moment.
    Is not to criticize or regulate anyone,
    but to try to become whatever dream I can be.

    To Let Go....Is not to regret the past,
    but to grow and live for the future.
    Is to fear less and to love more.

    And I do "LOVE YOU"

    So I will..."LET YOU GO"...

    Intersting, sad, and very captivating for what was written.
    I think in the last lines you should not have quotation marks around the words.
    Also, I do not like how the title is in all caps. Just my opinion.
    Overall, a very moving piece
    5/5

    Also, the thread you commented on mine was closed, but I made it a ONE for ONE deal. I've already commented on the other poem before now.

    Take care

    The beginning was so powerful. Loved that part, also, liked the repetition, taking the whole poem to new level. The poem really is about so natural that people doesn't tend to notice or will understand wrongly.
    Very meaningful piece 5/5

    I think the repetition here ("To Let Go...") is very effective. It's wonderful that you have all of these philosophies on love and letting go and you can share them in one poem. It shows your depth of thoughts and feelings. One suggestion: in the first stanza, you wrote,
    "It's not to cut myself off,
    It's the realization that I can't control another."

    In all the other stanzas, you said "Is" instead of "It's" .. maybe you could change the first stanza to,

    "Is not to cut myself off,
    Is the realization that I can't control another."

    I hope this was clear enough.
    Thank you for sharing!

    I liked the reputition of "To Let Go" it really held the poem together and gave it a deeper meaning as well as feeling. The flow of the poem was just ok for me, it could of been better, however; the overall structure was great.

    ``````````

    To let Go...Doesn't mean to stop caring,
    it means I can't do it for someone else.
    Is not to cut myself off,
    Is the realization that I can't control another.

    ^^A nice begining to the rest of the poem, gets the readers mood in the right spot to continue reading.

    ``````````

    To Let Go....Is not to enable,
    but to allow learning from natural consequences.
    Is to admit powerlessness,
    which means the outcome is not in my hands.

    ^^I really like this stanza, it really stood out to me for the simple fact that it is so true in many ways.

    ``````````

    To Let Go....Is not to try to change or blame another,
    I can only change myself.
    Is not to care for,
    but to care about.

    ^^Very vaild point you pointed out there, I hope many will read and fully understand the meaning behind this poem for it gives great insight about letting go.

    ``````````

    To let Go....Is not to fix,
    but to be supportive.
    Is not to judge,
    but to allow another to be a human being.

    ^^I feel like I keep saying the samething over and over, but I can't help it. This stanza shows the reader just how important it is to realize that one' has to let go and stop thinking of their selves all the time.

    ``````````

    To let Go....Is not to be in the middle arranging all the outcome,
    but to allow others to effect their own outcomes.
    Is not to be protective,
    it is to permit another to face reality.

    ^^Sometimes facing reality is hard to do, and by reading this stanza, one' can fully visualize and hopefully understand that the outcomes of not facing reality.

    ``````````

    To Let Go....Is not to deny, but to accept.
    Is not to nag, scold, or argue,
    but to search out my own
    shortcomings and to correct them.

    ^^Correction, is a must in many cases. Correcting yourself is one of the best tools one' can ever follow through with; by doing that hopefully the person will learn, and I always say, learning is the way to knowledge.

    ``````````

    To Let Go....Is not to adjust everything to my desires,
    but to take each day as it comes,
    and to cherish the moment.
    Is not to criticize or regulate anyone,
    but to try to become whatever dream I can be.

    ^^Oh this stanza reminds me of something I wrote a while back, and it is so true in so many perspectives. I'm a simple kind of man and I take life as it comes, I'm in no kind of rush, I just like to relax. Why can't a majority of the people these days understand relaxation?

    ``````````

    To Let Go....Is not to regret the past,
    but to grow and live for the future.
    Is to fear less and to love more.

    ^^Oh I liked this stanza, it shows such truth and many should follow what you are saying in this poem.

    ``````````

    And I do "LOVE YOU"

    ^^And I love you too...lol Really this is a nice little touch towards the end of the poem.

    ``````````

    So I will..."LET YOU GO"...

    ^^Great ending, shows that you care towards the other person enough to let them live their life the true way that they want.

    ``````````

    Nice write, keep up the great work.

    Peace, Joe

    Wow..

    to let go
    is a hard thing you know
    that even you don't like it
    you need to leave and forget about it

    to let go
    is a painful goodbye
    and a thing with many reasons why
    and as I watch you go
    the tears are starting to show!

    ~a short poem to comment on your wonderful poem...

    5/5
