Letting Go

You are the beauty in my soul
I didn’t realize made a hole.
Why did you have to go
Why did I let you go

You are the bird that sings
That swoops around a playful thing.
Why did you have to go
Why did I let you go

You were a typhoon in the gloom
In the quiet of my room.
Why did you have to go
Why did I let you go

Now you're an ache within my heart
That's quickly tearing me apart.
Why did you have to go
Why did I let you go

Taking in one final breath
I’m closer to you now.
It’s time to meet my death
Because
I couldn't let you go.

A beautiful love poem about loss.
Sometimes we have to let go people even though we don't want to.
Life can be cruel that way. For whatever the reason.
I enjoy how you use the repetition almost like lyrics to a song.
A very good poem, I very much enjoyed reading it.
Good work. Take good care.
