Why Can't I Let Go?

by Jessie   Dec 3, 2004


I force myself to smile,
Even though it kills me inside to see you with her.
I want to be happy for you,
But my throat tightens and my mind is a blur.

I start to feel a little dizzy now,
So I slowly turn my head away.
The salty tears slide down my cheeks,
Why does it have to be this way?!

Numbly I wipe away at the tears,
I know that I can't make it through,
Everyone says to just move on,
But I know that I will never be able to find another you.

Thoughts of you still take over my head,
And your picture remains on my wall.
Sometimes I wonder if you miss me,
Or if you even think about me at all.

I know it sounds stupid,
But I still miss you so.
I look up to the sky and whisper,
"Why can't I let go?"
