Poem request from JL: Let her go
purpose: It was never meant to be ( need something relatable)
In twilight’s gentle hue, my heart does weep,
A melody of longing, a secret I keep.
For in this labyrinth of desires, I know,
Maybe it’s time to let them go.
Like whispered sighs upon the summer breeze,
Their essence lingers, igniting memories.
Yet fate’s cruel hand has marked our separate ways,
Where star-crossed dreams must yield to brighter days.
Their laughter, a symphony that charmed my soul,
Their touch, an elixir that made me whole.
But destiny’s veil obscures what could be,
A love unbound, forever out of reach for me.
With each stolen glance, a bittersweet ache,
My heart’s compass yearns for a path I can’t take.
For reasons hidden in life’s complex design,
Our love, forbidden, cannot intertwine.
And so I stand upon this precipice of letting go,
Releasing tender tendrils, aching to grow.
Though tears may stain this tapestry of the past,
I’ll hold the echoes of love that forever last.
In realms untrodden, my heart shall mend,
Embracing the whispers of what might have been.
For love, it dances freely, unbound and free,
Even if it’s not meant for you and me.
So let them soar, like birds in the sky,
Across vast horizons, where dreams never die.
And I, with gratitude, shall set them free,
To find their happiness, far from the reach of me.
For in surrender lies a quiet strength,
A selfless act that spans the breadth and length.
And as I bid farewell to what my heart yearned,
New chapters shall unfold, and lessons be learned.
Maybe it’s time to let them go, I say,
To forge my own path, come what may.
For love’s true essence, in freedom we find,
A chance to heal, to grow, to leave behind.
So as the sun dips below the twilight’s glow,
I release their memory, my heart’s bittersweet woe.
With hopeful steps, toward the unknown, I tread,
Embracing the beauty of a love that can’t be said.
