let go

I let go of things I never held onto

your fingers are erasers

that take away my prints, my identity

I can’t sign my name, sorry,

‘cause I forgot it…

I let go of the softest things

I let go of time and beauty

I shook my head - once, twice,

and you didn’t believe me

you didn’t believe anyone

would choose to be alone

but you know it’s better for me

she hit the floor and it felt like loneliness

this pain, this time it’s for you,

you’ll still run through my veins

more often than through my mind

I’ll count to ten when I wake up

if I ever do

I let go of love and anger

I let go of the things I never knew

you’re so fragile

and my hands are so rough
