Stay Strong
I feel like I die a little each day as I wait patiently for you.
It's minute by minute, day by day, hour by hour, and now year by year.
I let you go to give you space and spread your wings.
They say if you truly love someone let them go, if its meant to be they will come back to you.
Too many years have flew by its time for me to say my goodbye's.
I die a little each day for I know I'm growing stronger, anyway.
I'm learning how to live and love, and not think of you.
I felt like I died when I let you go but now I know.
Letting you go gave me the wings I needed to grow.
Love is funny you know just when you think your world is falling apart, it
comes around and hits you in the heart.
I did not die, thou it seemed like I would
I stayed strong when it all seemed so wrong
I believe it was all meant to be, just as they said it would.
I live each day patiently so I can see it all.
Be strong and live for you, don't live waiting for someone to make you strong.
