I love you


Loving you was like holding onto a heavy rock in the middle of the ocean,

All you did was drag me down.

I didn't want to let you go, 

Because of how much I loved you.

But enough was enough and I fianlly gave in,

I let you go and I could finally swim to the top.

Letting you go killed my heart,

But holding on was killing me.
