Let him go

Let him go

This lie's become a part of me
For months, I've played this game
Acting like it doesn't hurt
Each time I hear his name

Ignoring what's inside of me
Pretending I've moved on
As if the feelings I once had
For him are somehow gone

Spending each and every day
With happiness and laughs
Forgetting all our memories
Avoiding photographs

But last night when I saw him
For the first time since we left
My heart stopped for a moment...
I couldn't catch my breath

When suddenly it hit me
as the tears started to flow
That even after all this time...
I just can't let him go

this is absolutely beautiful and so emoitionally deep. I can totally relate to it. It's amazing!

Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
