To Let Go and Breathe

To the one I loved

From across the table, I could feel his searing eyes
His burning stare looking directly into my soul
I felt his skin as he touched my hand sending shivers down my spine
The smell of his cologne was overwhelming and intoxicating
Nothing prepared me for limitless passion we felt for each other
Out of nowhere a crashing noise broke my sleep and I woke to. . .
Reality
Opening my eyes to the shimmering sun, my heart was traumatized
I am thrown back into a world full of loneliness and despair
He left me feeling humiliated, I loved, no love him so much
He walked away leaving me dizzy and wanting him more
It seems like forever love does not last forever, only in my heart
I thought I would be okay but then I see his brilliant smile. . .
Lost in the sea of his soul, realizing I cannot swim all over again
Without even a breath, my heart is thrown back into turmoil.
Yet, I still have to breathe.
He filled the emptiness in my soul with his love and passion.
So how do you let go even after months of trying
How do you let go of something so wonderful...
So that I can Breathe
