Letting Go

LETTING GO Forever wasn't meant to be Dreaming past the present was never a possibility Imagining just you and I was inconceivable I feared losing my liberty And the ability to be me Jettisoning my variable character Having my soul eaten away Erosion of my psyche All I feared you would do to destroy me Us becoming we was scary Physically I am free Emotionally you have imprisoned me A strong hold you have on me Thinking of you threatens to destroy my Fragility Our past will never be dissolved Or allowed to inhabit the recesses of our minds To become not even a passing memory To release me One day I may break free I hold the key but Letting go is very hard for me
