Of Letting Go
Last night I cried
Not just a tear—even my heart.
As I slowly, quietly
Let out a grief, a sigh
Of sweet surrender, of letting go.
Last night I cried
Not just a tear but even my heart
As I whispered a little prayer
For more versions of you
Though vague, even only in fragments.
Last night I cried
Not just a tear but with my whole heart
As I savored every moment
With all my mind, my heart, my soul
Of what was our happiness, our bliss, our love
Finally set free, finally forgiven
But will never ever be forgotten.
