Letting Go

by Rona   Jan 20, 2007


I've held on long enough,
It is time to let go.
My heart has been broken,
But it just doesn't show.

My hands are bleeding,
From holding on so tight.
Letting go is most painful,
Though I know it's only right.

I've grown attached
And that was a mistake.
My heart so fragile,
Was not yours to break.

Your eyes have deceived me.
It wasn't filled with passion,
Nor with the slightest inkling
Of your deepest compassion.

So I believe it is time,
Time to finally let go.
My love has been forsaken,
And that I truly know.

    I love this. A bittersweet and emotion filled write. It has a wonderful flow, and isn't too long, but isn't too horribly short either. Overall spectacular. *5/5
    I particularly liked these lines. It sums the idea up pretty well in my opinion.'
