illusion

i'm holding on to an illusion.
the what ifs and the maybes.
i've tried to get over you,
but you're always in the back of my mind.
sometimes i know you are,
sometimes i dont.
you're like a cancerous tumour that won't go away.
no matter how many times i pluck you out.
please.
let me go.
let me let you go.
it's time.
