Letting Go

Letting Go

Loving someone yet having to let them go can make one's heart heavy,
Causing tears to flow like the ocean through a broken levee. 
For you, there's nothing in this world I would not do nor give
Which makes this the hardest decision I will make as long as I live. 
If I thought for one moment my efforts would make you see me the way I see you,
Letting go would be the last thing that I would do.  
If I thought my love could open your heart to mine, 
Then maybe I could know we would be fine.  
If I thought my tears would save us from a goodbye,
Then for you a thousand rivers you would see me cry. 
I cannot imagine any of this will bring you to love me too,
So I'll show you just how much I truly do love you.  
Through teary eyes and with a broken heart I set you free, 
But always hoping one day you will see we are meant to be!!!

Thank you so much for your kind words:)

The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
