The Soul Sanctuary: 11) Let You Go

Jun 1, 2010

These are the terribly insignificant musings of Aishwarya Nagar at 9:49 PM

I've been standing underneath these heavenly showers

Even though the clouds have long since parted away.

Rain drops are prominent on the lids of my eyes

I cannot seem to handle the pain today.

Crippling, slowly, down on my knees

Music in my heart makes me weak

I open my mouth to say something

But beauty has robbed my chance to speak

To you.

Harmonies of pianos in my head, serenading the love I feel-

Rose petals scattered on my bed, as if nothing feels real-

My lips cannot sing goodbye for you

I can't let you go, let you go, let you go.

I pledge to myself: I won't cry for you

A friend, I won't let you go, let you go, let you go.

Smiling even though it hurts to be happy

For your sake I'll let you go, let you go, let you go.

And when I hug you for the last time, farewell,

I know I'll have to let you go, let you go, let you go.
