Letting go

I wrote this awhile ago but it is very relevant now. So I thought I would share it :)

I've been holding on so tight

To this unrealistic dream

But now my hands are slipping

And the ground is nowhere in sight

Is this going to hurt?

Or will I land on a cloud?

It's time for me to wake up

You will never change

The world is so much clearer

Now that my eyes are wide open

Do you see how happy I've become?

Why are you trying to ruin that?

You were my first love

But that never really meant anything to you, did it?

You can't bring me down

I'm moving on with my life

I am done waiting for you to show me

Your true feelings

How does it make you feel

To know this was your last chance?

You Decide

I have tried for so long
To keep my secrets, secret
Why are you trying to ruin that?
You don't know me
Like you think you do
I may not have all the answers
But, sweetie, you ain't even close
Every time I put in the effort
I get blamed like I did something
When it's really all your fault
Or maybe it's just that we
Should have never entertained that thought
We are not good together
Maybe it was never meant to be
Or am I wrong about this too
It's time for you to step up
Or back down, all the way down
Because this lukewarm water
Has become unbearable uncomfortable
You decide
