You have been special,
Very special in my life you became,
And I can’t bear the thought of letting you go,
But I have to if I am meant to.

For right now I am meant to let us go,
For I can no longer bear the pain,
For I can be patient with you no more,
Patient enough to watch I hurt.

I get down on my knees and look up to heavens,
Hoping things will be better, but….
Hoping you’ll understand me better, but…
But these heavens feel I’ve to let go
My life should not hurt this much.

I look back a year before,
I look back a year later,
I feel the loneliness in-between,
The loneliness I pretended not to notice,
But haunted me still.

I’m sorry to you and myself too,
But there is nothing we both can do.
It hurts to do this,
It pains so much that I can’t help but cry.

But Tears will come and someday end,
And even if I feel my heart will never heal,
I can not help it…
When the best thing is to let go’.
