    What I Let Go

    It's simple
    continue on and leave the past behing
    It is said you can't change a person
    Well, not for the better at least
    Perhaps I may have changed him for the worst
    By spoiling and catering to his every need
    I may have changed his personna about me
    "She'll always be there, she my girl"
    But I didn't stay that way for long
    Had to move on

    Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free
    I'm nobody's cow, so I had to stay away physically
    For me, physical ties into emotion
    Then I realize we're not together anymore and I'm hurt
    But I can't be mad at him because I brought it upon myself
    Because I let go of somebody that I no longer belonged to myself

    Beutifully written and good advise too :)

    Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

    T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
