Let Me Go

You were supposed to love me
and you failed
I told you and you didn’t care
If you have been thinking
I am coming back
I am not

~

Let me go

~

You had many chances
I gave you so many
more than I allotted to everyone else
I didn’t even blame you
when it was your fault
For years I let you slide

~

Let me go

~

It doesn’t matter if I love you
If you love me
it’s not enough
Your love is not enough
It costs me what money can’t buy
How do you weigh equity on peace

~

Let me go

~

I’m not coming back
You made your choice
and I am not it
I have my own wife now
I understand
and I can’t abide what you did to your first

~

Let me go

~

That bitch of yours wants to judge me
it doesn’t matter which one
I am referring to
They are cut from the same cloth
They both have daggers
They both have destroyed their own

~

Let me go

~

You have made quite the mess
Your selfishness has paid you in kind
I used to think you were Superman
But I know you are like a lot of men
That small head of yours
is braver than you are

~

Let me go

~

I am writing this for every woman
who has been betrayed
by the man who was
supposed to love her first
I am your first born
But you left me first

~

Let me go

~

The fact that I still feel your household
reaching out to me
My spirit feels tired of the pull
How long will you allow them to hate me
The letter I wrote said I want nothing
They can literally have everything but me

~

Let me go
