Letting go......

Like a whirlwind you came...disrupted my 'sane'
A lot to lose...I lost...but, so much more to gain
The possibilities were endless...you and I
Two souls combined
Damn...we could've touched the sky!
My mind and yours...crashing through doors
Never thought still now...you'd be seeping through my pores
I shake my head...clear my thoughts...still find no peace
Just dreaming of 'togetherness' and the intense 'release'
Why?..why?..why?...wings spread wide as I struggle to fly
They were clipped the day you made me cry...as I tumble
slowly down...feeling the hurt...pieces of me scatter to earth
Did you not feel? How could you not see...here I pause...
Are you even worthy of me? As I break my fall...the tears still
flow...my feet touches ground...as I let you go...the light
inside...though dim...never blew...I cannot convince you of something you knew...and so I proceed...more cautious now
feet planted firmly on the ground...knowing already that I'll
be okay...for the strength of my 'light' is enough...to guide my way.
