Letting Go

I’m starting to let go of the things I never thought I could Forgetting about what used to matter and what I used to think was good I’m forgetting the familiar faces, and the attachment I once had It used to be that being without them always made me sad And now I’m someone new, someone I barely know Though it’s not the same as before, somehow I still continue to grow Molded into a different person with different hopes and dreams, Not as down as I should be, but not as happy as I may seem I guess I’m just in transition from the life I had and the one I’m living I’ve made my choice and if one day I try to make it back, I won’t expect You to be forgiving I’m caught up in a world that you taught me never to go back to But now the only return I fear is the journey back to you
