The Water ~11/07/1998 Poem by Loretta Rowley

I can't hold on any longer to your hand.
I have to let go and walk on alone.
In search of myself once in the moonlight.
Lost in relations not meant to be.
I never thought this day would come,
where I found it in myself to walk away.
My love for you will never end.
But, now over powered by the heart.
Torn in promises not meant for me.
Alive more than ever learning from the lies.
I have come to conclude today;
Just once wallk alone on the water.
With faith and no fear I have done right.
Once I'll have the courage to move on.
Taking one breath at a time slowly,
I take a step more away from the shore
Without a tear ilook into your eyes,
free you with the words of goodbye..
