Letting Him Go

Thoughts of you, they plague my mind
My chest tightens further every time
I loved you then and I love you now
Echoes of your voice in my head are loud

There's a song or two I've listened to
Telling me to do what I've got to do
Get over you, stop loving you
But what we had was true, straight through

Sleep does not come easily
Your laughter keeps tormenting me
The walls, they bend and take your shape
You're everywhere, I can't escape

You were my person, so perfectly
I knew that we were meant to be
You told me that you had to leave
The same old line, "it's not you, it's me"

I want so badly to forget
The very day we ever met
But I can't, because I don't regret
Loving you through every step

I wish you well, find happiness
Know that I will always miss
Your smile, your laugh, your everything
For you, I would do anything

Goodbyes are hard, my tears are acid
I wouldn't give up a single moment, I loved it while it lasted
Live your life to it's fullest potential
To worry for me is nonessential
