Letting Go

Its hard to let go of things you love
Even harder is letting go of people you love
To recognize that in letting go that love has a chance to grow even more
To illuminate the memories and to affirm "Goodbyes" aren't forever, just a moment in time.

Letting go of your closeness is not easy
But completely letting you go is impossible
How can I? There are so many good times to completely erase what we we've shared.

To see you smile, share your happiness and rejoice in the fulfillment of your dreams
And to watch your love grow will help me gain the acceptance of you leaving
For more than anything I desire to see you filled with happiness
Letting go is not that easy
