It's Time

I think it's time
To let you go

I think it's time
To set you free

I've imprisoned you 
With my love
With my needs

My hold on you
Had made you weak
I've squeezed all you had
For me

I need you now
But you are not there
You haven't anything
To give me

I must save myself
To save you

I will always love you
I will always be your friend

Your place in my hear
In my soul
Will always be yours

You know where to find me
If you should ever
Need my love again

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
