The Letting Go

There are times I spend searching for you...

In my thoughts and dreams.

There are tears that should make it all go away,

But it makes it worse, it seems.

I can still see your face, I can hear your voice...

But it's all in my mind.

If I could just see your brown eyes smiling at me...

If only there were more time.

In losing you, I have lost myself...

Over and over again.

The letting go is full of a constant pain,

And heaven is all I have left to believe in.

I would have touched your face, and cried to you...

I would have told you what you mean to me.

I would have never let you go without "I love you"...

If I had only known what was to be.

There are nights I wake up shaking...

I lose you all over again.

Just know that you are always in my heart,

Just as you've always been.
