all the poems i ever wrote..

Let you go

-Let you go- 

To: the one I will let go I was asked to...

I can't make you stay if you want to leave,

But darling I will preserve our memories.

For days ahead when I miss you next to me.

For the days when I want to feel your hugs to sleep.

For the days when I want to see you smile

While the reason was still me.

But I will let go of you if that is what you need.

It's okay I can unhear things for you,

I can unsee them too.

For all I need is your love for me.

But with you happy, is my true victory.

So if your butterflies don't come home next to me.

It's okay if you want to leave.

I can live through life with our memories.

All the ice creams we shared,

All the sleepovers,

All the stories we kept a secret,

All the butterflies we bred. 

I will capture them,

Compiled into a photo album.

Flip the pages with every breath, I will to take.

And simply decay as the sun sets.

I will leave my soul on earth,

Still wrapped in my heart

Who will keep waiting for your touch

To beat for one last chance.

I will let go, for my universe to live on.

I will still never forget those hands

Who took my temperature,

Who whipped my tears,

Who simply said to me, the truth and reality.

I will keep loving you

Even after the stars die and the moon takes over me.

I will still love you

Even after the sun burns out and mars crushes our dreams.

Loving you is my habit

Take it equivalent to breathing, living.

But I can still let go if you were still asking.

Are you still asking... for me to let you go?
