WHY AM LETTING GO

I didn't stick around because you were perfect......I didn't stick around because you were cool or popular..... ..I didn't stick around because you cleaned up nice
NO!!!
I stuck around because there was nowhere else I would rather be.... I stuck around because with you I could truly be me. I stuck around because of that genuine spark in your eyes........ Those eyes that matched the sea.
I stuck around because you fully embraced me, because you had offered me a safe place to heal, a space to dream .........that in a long time I hadn't felt that free. So that's why I stuck around because I truly wanted to be me.......but then you showed me the real you.............I started to let go....
I didn't start letting go because I was bored
I didn't start letting go because I was suddenly tired.
I didn't start letting go because I was ungrateful for what we had.
NO!!!
I started letting go when words like "I love you"became so hard for you
I started letting go because you were right there but I couldn't find you. I couldn't hold you, I couldn't feel you.
I started letting go when everything about you felt so new.
I started letting go when the spark in your eyes got dim,.........when the dates got grim...................When the anger in me reached its brim.
I started letting go when talking to you felt like walking on eggshells........when being next to you felt more like HELL. When you started defending all the lies.......
I started to let go when I realized I was deceiving myself. When I realized I was the only one in all this.....I watched you slowly unloving me......at least one day you will realized you lost someone who was totally yours
THAT'S WHEN I ACTUALLY STARTED TO LET GO.
