its hard letting go of


its hard letting go of something you've been struggling to hold onto.

especially when its hurt you more than it has helped you.

but it'll hit you one day when you're holding someone else's hand while they're driving,

and the song that you used to cry to when you thought about him comes on the radio,

and it doesn't even phase you anymore.

you'll finally realize that letting go was worth it.
