Letting Go

When do you know to let go To give up whatever hope you once had Hope that something would happen How do you let go for something That you felt and still feel The feelings so strong And yet so sweet and sour A feeling you wish you made up A feeling you sometimes wish you never felt Only because it hurts so much To feel it, but yet can’t have it Something you’ve waited and wanted for so long How can you try to find Something you’ve already found It almost feels pointless Why do you keep praying? And asking God for help To forget and let them go But yet ever time you try you fail When do you kill the pain? But more importantly how Does it make it easier when? When you don’t see them When you don’t talk to them You would think so But I’ve come to realize it doesn’t Because letting go of something Something you’ve always$ wanted Its the hardest thing to do Letting go when it’s right in front of you…
