Letting go...

Hearing those words,
that I have been waiting,
for so long,
was like listening,
to a very beautiful song.

Happiness,
was what I felt,
but quickly masking it,
was sadness,
that has to be dealt.

I thought,
of being selfish,
of having my own way,
but what would that accomplish,
if at the end of the day,
the happiness that I have fought,
is not what I sought.

Though my heart aches,
I have to let go,
even if it would take,
all that I have,
to do so.

I am tired of crying,
tired of thinking,
of all that was said,
of all that have been left unsaid.

Setting you free,
would be the best thing,
for me,
and for you...
