Letting Go

I remember being in the dormitory hall,
I wept, pouring my heart out in front of you all
I didn’t know heartbreak would bring me to rock bottom
I had to call my dad to help me stand again
For tomorrow

I remember wondering what a year from then held
And luckily a year later I’m able to say
That I am doing well, but I’m still stuck in the past
Moving on seems like an impossible task

I went back to him, but we did not last.
I’m not ready to say goodbye, so I don’t.
Instead, I hold on,
Full of hope.

I know our time isn’t now,
It’s just so hard to put this down.

I think after some growing we could work
We could be happy and forget the hurt
The problem is he doesn’t see
That life will be okay with me

We view life very differently,
So he’s afraid of hurting me,
I’ve been through the pain once before
I want him to give us a chance
Before we officially close the door.
