I release you
To the wind
To the sky
I finally
Will let go
I finally know
Holding on
To this heart
I thought was mine
Has only made me
Hate mine own heart
So I start
A new
By letting go
Of you
The past
Can no longer weigh me down
I no longer
Will be chained by
Someone who I thought
Was so high
But at the end
You were human
Like the rest
And at best
You had flaws
The same as me
So you see
To let go
Means to know
I have flaws of my own
But I no longer
Am trapped by yours
So for that
I let go
I let go
And embrace
A new heart
Apart
From yours
I
Finally
Can let go.
WOAH!! This poem is stunning. It's beautifully written.

This poem is a piece. I love it.
This reminds me of a quote I saw recently, "Life is a balance of holding on and letting go." You expressed this idea better than I could ever have imagined.
