Just let me go

Just let me go

A Poem by shawnt5604

You stop me
Just to steal my breath
Though your twisted temptations will be the death
Of me

Don't you see me captivated
From every sweet word you speak?
Or the weight on my shoulder
As my knees become weak

But you chose him
Which I willingly support
But why make a sport
Out of teasing me

I thought we would grow old together
But now that we are old
The stormy weather
Rains on me

I hate to admit
That I hate to see you happy
While gladly
You keep me in the midst

Just close enough to give me hope
And keep fresh in my mind
The memories I miss

But at some point
I must dismiss
This hinderence from my heart
And let time
Take it's course
As it brings us apart

So I say now
Because eventually you must know
That my only true wish
Is for you to let me go

Sometimes, it's really our best choice to let the one we want go. It's not easy, I know, but by a certain point, it becomes necessary. There will always be someone meant for us out there. It's not the end of the world just because you can't happen to get the girl you want or that she's not into you the same way, it's not her fault that her emotions are all scattered, then randomly focused on another who just seemed to step into the picture. I've seen this happen with many people, but the way we get hurt is becoming too attached to someone we think is perfect cause in the end, they will show their true colors and they might not be as perfect as we seem.
