Letting Go
It rained
The day
You left
My world paused
And the sky fell
When I said goodbye
I was so afraid
I was choking
On panic
As I let you
Slip from my grasp
But suddenly
With you gone
The air is clearer
I loved you then
And a part of me
Will always love you
And sometimes
When it rains
I ache
I miss you
Of course I do
You should know that
That even after the sky fell down on us
I have your back
You'll never
Lose that
Not that part of me
The piece
You always had of me
So I take a deep breath
And I hold tight
Even when the night
Threatens to break in
And break down
My walls
Because I'm here
It took so long
To get to this moment
And feel this open
Every thing
I broke
I turned around
And now
As I face you
Here
I know
All that was left for you and I
Was letting go
