I'M Letting Go of You

There's this part of me that wants to let go...
And then there's this Part of me that wants to hold on...

But I can't do both!

This hurts me as much as it's going to hurt you...
But I'm hurting myself by not doing somthing about it...

So to get rid of this hurting feeling inside of my heart...

I'm letting go!
I'm sorry...
But I have too! 
I need too!

I'm ready for a fresh start...
A new life! 

Goodbye my love...
