Letting Go

I don’t think you realize

how you look through my eyes

I don’t think you really understand.

Despite my present heartache

my love of you is no mistake

you’ve no idea how much you’ve healed my soul

And though I’ve known the ending

since there was a beginning

I don’t regret the road I had to take

I don’t regret the laughter

the tear drops or disaster

the waves of them that carried me away

It would be easier to hate you

and in my mind mistake you

for a man who never cared at all

But I’m bold enough to realize

that if I look through His eyes

I’ll see a man who cares the best he can

I’m not saying that you’re perfect

but I hope you know you’re worth it

and I wouldn’t trade a day I’ve known your face

You are a treasure meant to keep

and that is why I weep

because I have to give you back and let you go

I wish you joy and sunlight

I wish you Hope and new Life

and all the love the heart of man can hold.
