Letting Go Of What Cannot Be Held Back

Letting go of what
cannot be held back
the once fainted memories
come and go as they please.

Letting go of the hurt
that they all put me through
menacing actions, vicious words
the visible wounds will heal,
the ones hidden away, will not.

Letting go of the man
I am supposed to call father.
You walked into my life 15 years too late
only to walk back out the next month.

Letting go of the mistakes
made by reality.
Barbie is not that great,
you don’t need to look like her
Yes I do.

Letting go of the fights
ignited by my own doing
I swear I love you,
I never meant to hurt you
I’m so sorry.

Letting go of the trust
issues and broken hearts
I wish I hadn’t been so blind
I could’ve prevented a lot
I was wrong, you’re right.

Letting go of my sanity
my thoughts,
they plague my mind,
I can’t get away

Letting go of the memories
the images, words
let it go, it will be all okay.
Letting go of what
cannot be held back.
