Let Go

I don't need your love to feel complete read all the books, I know that's not me and I'm smart enough to know about the heart I can never hold and the hand that has been let go it wasn't out of need it was my heart's want words that were whispered dances that were done lyrics that were sung under a moon I thought you'd hung the moon has a way of slipping behind clouds the cool mountain breeze only mocks me now the stars on which we gazed don't shine near as bright it returns in my dreams, nearly every night when the dawn creeps in red, I start to write it wasn't out of need it was my heart's want words that were whispered dances that were done lyrics that were sung under a moon I thought you'd hung how long does it take to forget this love? to put it all aside with memory left thereof I can put it in prose, lyric and haiku make it come out, any way I want it to but I might as well face it, I'm not over you it wasn't out of need it was my heart's want words that were whispered dances that were done lyrics that were sung under a moon I thought you'd hung and I'm smart enough to know about the heart I can never hold and the hand that has been let go
