Let Go
Two words broke the thing I worked so hard to make,
Two hearts torn apart by the works of fate,
Nothing could save the relationship we had,
Believe me I tried,
I put on a smile,
And swallowed my pride,
Knowing how much it would hurt to let you go,
But at the same time knowing that eventually
my unhappiness would show,
I couldn't change the way you were,
Or all the things that had occurred,
With our relationship in the past,
I just avidly hoped we would last,
But I faced the facts and just let you go,
My heart is now broken,
With words left unspoken,
That you will never know.
