The Price I Paid

by Jill Thiery   May 21, 2013


Although you left me, and why,
you won't say
And though you took with you, my heart,
that day

The reason it's possible
to let you go
Is that that I have realized
and now, I know

You've found the love
that I know you need
I see that you're happy,
just not with me

My eyes fill with tears,
as I watch you go
Just one more thing,
I pray that you know

If the price of happiness, for you,
is me
You are much more than worth it,
I'll let go,
You are free
