Letting Go
Letting go
Of the dream
That you would rescue me
From my benign existence
Letting go
Of the pain
Of the despair that I plunged into
When I gave you my heart
Letting go
Of your betrayals
Of your twisted manipulation
Cleverly disguised as a loving request
Letting go
Of your cruelty
Of your madness
Of your memory
Farwell, forever my love
It's been frightening
But, the important thing is
That this chapter of my life has come to an end
