Letting Go Poem by Bobby Pask

It felt like it was
A thousand years.
Most of each memory has
Many tears.

I couldnt let go
Wouldnt move on.
You wouldnt ever know
Because your heart was gone.

After all that time
I finally was freed.
That fatal crime
Had allowed me to take the lead.

Only months later
I had begun to see the light.
Was soon after
I had found my next fight.

Little did i know
She would be the one.
I dont know how
Her heart, i had won.

Nearly eight years passed
And i thought of you each day.
Hoping one day our paths crossed
And we didnt go our seperate way.

I fumbled through life
Always running back to you.
The pain and strife
Made it hard to see what to do.

I finally found
My solace in losing you.
My heart finally wound
Up letting go too.

My heart was still shattered
And the pain never seemed to cease.
She appeared
And picked up each piece.

She showed me
What i had always wanted.
I could see
Without feeling haunted.

She told me
I deserved more.
But, i could never be
The one to open loves door.

She loves me beyond compare
And i feel the same.
She was there
When i wanted to end lifes game.

She dragged me back
Out of the shadows.
Put me back on track
To see where life goes.

I just wanted
To thank you.
You showed
Me you werent the one who was true.

If i hadnt lost you
Back then, there
would be nothing to
Me and her.

She is my
world, my life.
At some point, i will try
And make her my wife.

Thank you for
Letting go.
Each day, i love her more and more.
I just wanted you to know.
