Letting Go

You’ve only asked me for my heart And time and time I fail But giving in would change my world My days would be derailed I’ve searched for ways to come to truce With my brittle heart’s demise Yet time and time I fail to see My truth was based on lies I’ve taught myself to stand alone And love is lust disguised That strength can only come to me If I keep my love inside But you held on tight to what is yours And changed my jaded mind You showed me love I never knew And let me take my time You let me scream, you let me cry You’ve made me realize You’ve let me drown you in my pain Then still wake into your eyes So say no more I’m yours to keep I’ve given up this fight You’ve showed me love I can’t deny I’m letting go tonight
