Time To Let Go

Time To Let Go

A Poem by Travis Prino

I saw my life dance at my fingertips

just out of reach I can't grab hold of it

you used to be something so close to me

now you've become the object of my misery

I'm left here drowning in a lonesome hate

but how long can I keep up this charade?

cause secrets buried say I still love you

no one will know but me, I hide the truth


years go by and I wonder why

you are still here on my mind

the days are long and the months are slow

I think it's time I just let go

but it's easier said than done

when I thought you were the one

there's nothing left of me to show

I think it's time I just let go


time became our biggest enemy

it teased us with the thought that we could be

then ripped my heart out when you just gave up

I never thought I'd here you say you're not in love

the silence has become unbearable

tearing at my mind till I can't be consoled

and I'm a mess of what I used to be

nothing remains that remotely resembles me


years go by and I wonder why

you are still here on my mind

the days are long and the months are slow

I think it's time I just let go

but it's easier said than done

when I thought you were the one

there's nothing left of me to show

I think it's time I just let go


take what I have to offer

even though it isn't much

try to make this last forever

even though you've had enough

give me the chance to make this better

after all our s****y luck

I won't say this is forever

I tried, I failed, my love


years go by and I wonder why

you are still here on my mind

the days are long and the months are slow

I think it's time I just let go

but it's easier said than done

when I thought you were the one

there's nothing left of me to show

I think it's time I just let go


just know that wherever I go you'll be

and wherever you go I'll see

cause we're under the same sky

tonight and for the rest of our lives.

It's hard to let go. Even in broken and lost love no matter the pain Something positive brought you together in the first place. I think often the inability to let go of a past love is we all hold that one moment of love closer than anything else in the relationship. Nicely done.
