Everything’s about to change
And for the what feels like the trillionth time I say, “I hope for the better”
But this time, deep down, I know for the better
This time, I’m prepared for whatever
You made me smile
You made me laugh
You made me cry
And although I saw myself as your precious signature flower,
The world wasn’t too gentle picking my petals
So here I am…
On the verge of a great shift
I find myself having to let you go,
For the better, I suppose, with memories enclosed
You were someone I never knew I needed
You taught me that to be free I needed to release what hindered me,
You told me that my creative energy had never forsaken me
In my mind and heart, it resides
Just like you
Tears wash away my scars and bruises as I type this…
But you taught me to let it all go so I can write this
And I find myself having to let you go
For the better I know
For a future story that is shared
Here and now
I find myself letting you go
To become the woman you had always known,
Just being my own version of different
Navigating this world alone with a blueprint full of memories and love
I find myself having to let you go
To share a story of one untold
I realize I need to let you go
For both souls
I find myself letting you go
But for the best of both worlds, this I know
Until we meet again
My amazing friend
But an even better soul
