I Give You My Blessing

I give you my blessing. 
No more reassessing. 
What more can a girl do. 
For a man who isn't true. 
Your eyes are not locked to 
mine. Constantly searching all 
the time. 
For someone else who fits your 
rhyme. I will do what it takes. 
Never will I pretend to be fake. 
You know my truth. 
All the way back to my youth. 
If its not me who's worth a lot. 
Then someone else must be 
meant to fill this empty spot. 
I'm glad that I met you. 
This I know to be true. 
My heart will always hold on. 
But my mind says it's about 
that time. That I end this 
rhyme. 
No more reassessing. 
I give you my blessing.

I've been there and done that. I know how it feels to give a blessing away to some one you felt you loved yourself. Good wording.
