If its true love let it go..

On a boring Sunday, I went to church.
I was not in a good mood, I just wanted to sleep.
I opened the door, and that's when I saw you,from that moment on,
I fell for you.

I was transported to a different world, when your deep brown eyes captived me.
They told me a story of a world I'd never understand.
They told me the story of a refugee.

Shortly after the first day we met,
we became friends.
You opened the door to a new chapter in my life.

I entered this new chapter with hope,hope that I wouldn't have to deal with the pain,alone.
You held my hand as you walked me through a life with a friendship with you.

Before I knew it, I had feelings for you.

The small things you shared about yourself,and your past, I collected in my mind.
I wanted to know you,all of you.

I learned about your time as a solider,only a boy.
I looked in your eyes, and saw the innocence that was pryed away.
I wanted to hold your hand,reassure you,it'd be okay.
But I tortured myself and forced myself away.

I wanted to be closer to you, but you were almost a man, and I was only a girl.
What did I know about love?
I just hoped you loved me.

One day, you told me you were going to move away.
From that moment on I wanted to be with you,every single day.
I didn't want to leave your side.
Even more than before.

But friendship wasn't enough, I wanted something more.

The last day I saw you, was bittersweet.
I breathed in your scent and stayed close to your side .
These feelings, I no longer wanted to hide.
It was killing me inside.

I had a chance,
but instead of holding it in my grasp, I let it go.
I.let you go.

You deserved better than your.life here,
even if it meant a life without.me I just wanted you to be happy.

Its been two years from our painful goodbye,
it still.gives me a tear in my eye.
I just want you to know, I still love you,
more than I.loved you ever.before.

If you love them, let them go...we all want the best for the ones we love. Love is the most painful and yet the most beautiful thing that will ever happen to a person. I've never been in love, but I hope when I do, I will have the strength to do what is right, whether that is to let go or hold on. Beautiful poem, bittersweet and lyrical. I wish you the best of luck and hope one day you'll meet again.
