I let go of your hands
To let you know, you have the strength to stand
I let go of your heart
To let you know, now is the time for you to start
I walked away from you
To let you know, that I would always stay true
I will come back someday
To gently remind you, why I could not stay
I always will hold you dear
I will always come, in the midst of your fear
I let go of your heart
To let you know, that we would never be apart
I let go of your hands
To let you know, what no one understands

(Poem #12 of 31 for #OctPoWriMo. Thinking about the things that hurt us when they happen but sometimes a different perspective is needed and seeing it from the other side to where the love and forgiveness reside. There is a time for everything under heaven. ~M)
Very sweet indeed. Nurturing, in spite of the letting go.
Sometimes we just have to let go. Well said.
