Let You Go... Poem by Nestor David Armas

Let you go

Let you go

That's what I'll do

You've let me go

And now I must

Do the same,

That's the game,

Rain into dust

Dreams I cannot sow

Leave it all behind in blue

Let you go

Let you go

I must forget you now

Even if I don't know how,

The fork in our road

Has only time borrowed

That we must fade

Like mud in the Everglade,

The grass will grow over

All our tracks, nothing left to savor,

Gum gone bland

Like dry dry sand,

Let you go

Let you go

My mind may forget

But my heart won't let

The ache get better

I'll never need a dredger...
