Let You Go

Isn't it about time I let you go?
Gave you up and left you to regret?
The lashes hit my cheeks and there you are,
Clear as a winters day and bright as the stars at night,
Just a dream yet so much more
And I spend so much of my time in my head with you.
If only I knew if it's worth my time,
That I'm not just a blank face in the background,
Just another voice on the end of the line -
If I knew that you'd noticed me.
Maybe if I tried more to turn your head in my direction,
To let you know that I'm here if you want me
If you wanna feel a little less alone.
But I don't know -
What makes me think you'd ever see me?
Hope is not my forte and I'm good at giving it up too soon,
So that's what I'll do, like always,
And leave you be.
You're like starlight in more ways than you know:
So bright, so beautiful and so far away.
Untouchable.
It's about time I let you go and realised
It's better to forget you.

It's been months now and you still plague my brain. I can't compare you to a disease because you're not something I despise, not something I want gone. But I know I'm not the only head you've turned, I'm not the only girl willing to give it all up for you. I should let you go - if only I could.
