I let go

I can love whoever I want....but it's pointless if they don't feel the same about me.

I was living in my own little world,
Just trying to keep things right,
Then the tears started to fall,
I wasn't going to fight.

She had already won,
She had his heart trapped,
He didn't see how much it hurt me,
When he let go.

I just wanted him to be happy,
I didn't know it would hurt so bad.
I let him go and now,
I'm miserable and oh so sad.

He still walks with me,
He still talks with me,
He still cries on my shoulder.
But I watch him walk her way,
Each and every day.

Your poem simply described the sad nature of unrequited love. I loved it. Simple yet beautiful. Keep on writing! :)
