I love you, I let you go

I love you, I let you go

A Poem by Tony Murray
"

If you love something let it go...

"

I love you, I let you go
Just like they all told me to do.
I love you, I let you go
And off into the wind you flew.
 

 

I love you, I let you go
Soar off into those clear blue skies.
I love you, and I let it show
As burning tears leaked slowly from my eyes.
 

I love you, and it hurts to say
That our parting was not sweet sorrow.
I love you, more now than when you left that day
And will love you twice as much tomorrow.
 

I love you, more than words can say
Although if my heart could speak it’d say it best.
I love you so and the pain inside
Has me aching and ripping at my chest.
 

I love you, you are priceless to me
Your love is my sacred jewel.
I love you, I let you go
And I feel ever so much the fool.
 

I love you, from deep inside
And have since the first moment we met.
I love you, and desire only your happiness
I’ll strive for that with my very last breath.
 

I love you, I let you go
A lesson that was so hard learned.
I love you, and I realized why
On the day that you returned.
 

I love you, I let you go
Yet because you loved me too
Although you went away, you are now back to stay
Proving our love is true.
I love you.

Beautiful...the ending we all seek. Set her free and if she loves you she will return. There was a mental picture of a blue bird flying away. Lovely write!
