Letting Go

I'll sing you my song
I'll tell you my dream
but, you already know
things aren't as they seem.
I'm thinking of moving on
I can't live just

barely
hanging
on.

Day after day,
and year after year
who would've thought
we'd end up here?
But we both know
why we are where we are.
There is no mystery,
not considering our history.

So, I'll pack my bags.
And then say goodnight.
You'll bid me farewell
and kiss me goodbye.
I'll turn away with tears in my eyes.
"Take care of yourself"
you'll quietly cry.
I'll walk out the door
and walk out of your life.

I may think of you fondly

from time to time.

And you may remember

me and smile.

Maybe we can be friends again,

after a while.

But for now, please let me go.

Let me see what my future holds.
