Let Go


You’re gone now

And I’ll never get you back

At night I’d lie awake and wait for you

But you never came

 

Dark nights dragged on for years

But I held onto the light at the end of the tunnel

People say time heals

But it doesn’t fix what was already broken

 

My greatest fear was losing you

And it was my fault I didn’t accept the facts

Fear brought me closer to you

But letting go of it liberated me
