Letting Go

Sitting in my darkened room; tears are falling.
My heart is broken; I feel like bawling.
We used to be so close, now so far apart.
Now I see you, I no longer feel a part.

Sitting here, regretting it all.
I fell for you, now I truly fall.
Each day we met, I grew more to you.
As time grew, I started to fall in love with you.

Knowing it will never be; I felt like dying.
Watching you with him, I’ve started crying.
Hating myself for what I’ve become; decaying heart.
I never knew; so much pain I did not anticipate at the start.

I grew to love you, adore you; I was happy.
Now my heart lays broken; I am never happy.
I would’ve died for you; so much like my heart has done so now.
My heart now broken; I will never take another vow.

You are so beautiful; I grew to love your eyes.
Knowing nothing will come of it, my heart dies.
I love you; this is why I’m staying out of your life.
I die more as I write these words, like my heart being stabbed with a knife.

They say if you truly love something, you must let it go.
After recent times; now why, I know.
I loved you, with all of my being.
Though I lay here crying, you were still worth seeing.

Now I say my final goodbye; it pains me.
I loved you so much, now I’ll let you be.
I understand it, we will never be together.
I will still love you, always and forever.
