Sometimes You Have To Let Go

by Heather M Craig   Mar 11, 2005


If I must love one,
why'd it have to be
the one I can't have,
nor will love me?

But to love a heart
even as bitter cold as my own
but as night falls,
Still....it beats alone.

Tears bleed from my eyes
onto a petal of a black rose
to death be my love
and ease back into shadows.

I need not love no longer,
the heart is locked here,
constant status remains,
lonliness results in tears.

My naive patterns of love,
my heart will never know
but to love one who won't give it back,
sometimes you just have to let go...

    and I know 14 is too young to get married silly, it's not even legal for the sake of age and gender. But have you ever wanted to be that close, that committed to the one you love and that person to you? Can't help the feeling of wanting to. sry...I talk too much. lol.
    -peace.

    AWWWW, this is soooo sad. It's a great poem but still so sad.

    P.S. Are you sure you didn't know I was like THAT? LoL, I've always said "my girl" or "Auliya", her name, and you didn't know to see if my profile said whether I was a girl or not?
