I Must Let Go Poem by Kelley Collins

The battle that has been fought deep within,
led us to lust and many a sin,
I have held you in my heart for many years,
watching you marry for money caused a lot of tears,
I never was strong enough to let you go,
as time goes by, I must do it I know
There is an emptiness that remains deep within,
I must not cryin public, so, i continue to grin,
The love we shared you traded away,
You broke my heart what more is there to say?

Like a knife you cut me deep,
with no warning you left me alone to sleep,
I was all alone with nothing left but wounded pride,
You soon appeared, lonely, with no love inside,
I reminded you how you belonged to another bride
I seen you look away with tears in your eye,
You didn't realize my heart bled with your last good bye.
