Why Don't You Let Me Let You Go

WHy don't you let me let you go? 

Un-crumbling our memories 

We write each other's love stories in silence

My world is colorless, 

my pain is priceless - 

Because it's, too - 

reminding me of you.

Why don't you let me let you go?

Unraveling my feelings with my clothes

I loved you. Now I love you more.

Why don't you lie

that you don't love me anymore?

Why didn't you continue to pretend

and to ignore?

And write your letters in your diary -

instead of tattooing my soul

with clouded questions like 

Why don't you let me let you go?

People are similar

in that they aren't you

I wish that I could make you happy - 

or that you would find somebody new.

I know you'll come for me once more

And for the first time, I will lie to you

and say I let you go.

Wow, you are some hidden gift of an amazing writer!!! I absolutely love your thought process and your spilling of emotions to the page. I’m in awe of these words.. more of my new favorites... so happy I stumbled upon you. You shouldn’t be “anonymous;” you should be “published.” I would buy you!
