letting go

sometimes you are forced to let go

let go of someone you love

when you are disposed of so mercilessly 

you are given no other option

the process of letting go is difficult

especially if you are not the one 

that has made the decision to do so

letting go is not what I wanted

I vowed that this time I'd fight for us

that I would not let you run so easily

as you did the last time you left me behind

but I realize that I can only fight

if you are willing to hold on

you made your choice without me in mind

you have given me no other choice

so today I am forced to let go

I suppose this is what is best for me

you can't give me what I want

you can't give me what I deserve

you can't be the man that I need

you can't be the one for me

you made this choice for us

you disposed of me and my love

so today begins this process

today I let you go completely

today is a new day 

today is a fresh start 

today is a new opportunity

today I choose happiness

today I choose me

today I seek a new best friend

today I seek a new love

today I seek a new man

today I seek what I deserve

today I say goodbye to you
