there's so many things we could've done differently,
but this is us now and it's how we chose to be.
was it time and space that kept us apart,
or were these emotions all just false from the start?
the promises we made never seemed to last,
they turned into grains of sand and slipped through the hourglass.
the foundation that we laid, it took so long to build
& then it simply crumbled when our needs went unfulfilled.
mistakes were made and tears were shed,
but forgiveness was given while hearts still bled.
so emotions raged on in the depths of our souls,
and no words were said to truly repair our hope.
more time went by and nothing changed,
no sign of the sun, only clouds and rain.
things got harder as we grew more apart,
but one thing remained true;
i knew i still loved you in my heart.
so faced with a decision to prove my love for you,
i set your soul free, for you to start anew.
deep down i had wished,
that during our time apart,
that you would come back to me
and over we would start.
but now you've got a new girl
instead of me at your side,
while i'm left with all these feelings to
bury way deep inside.
so just once more for me, let me hear you say,
this is what you want now
and things will never be the same.
just cast me aside, its ok. i get it.
please let me go and don't ever regret it,
and don't come back after a few months go by,
just get on with your life - pretend that i've died.
for today is the day i will let it all go,
just once more ill tell you what i need you to know
the last of these words i truly do mean,
with every ounce of my soul,
and every part of my being;
you owned every part of me.
you were my soul and the heart of me.
you were the dream that i wanted nothing more to come true,
you were the light that filled me inside when darkness seeped through.
you were companionship to me in times of loneliness,
and you were my never ending relief through the worst of stress.
you were my support and guidance when all else failed,
and a best friend to me when the world had bailed.
So goodbye to you,
I have loved you for far too long,
Its time for me to get going,
and to keep on moving on
i wrote this poem for someone not too long ago. DON'T steal my words without asking me. This is my raw emotion.
