I must let go,
I no longer can hold on
to things that cannot be.
I must let go,
I no longer have the strength
to hope for things that cannot be.
I must let go,
I no longer can allow
the dreams that are killing me.
I must let go,
I no longer can hold the tears
drawing the emptiness inside of me.
I must let go,
I have shed too much energy
in friendships that cannot be.
I must let go,
because the longing is breaking me
and I've come to realize that nothing is meant to be.
