They say if you love something set it free If it returns, it’s yours. If it doesn’t then it never was meant to be.   But, often times I wonder What’s worse? If our time together Was a blessing or a curse? Trying to hold on to something With hope and faith alone. Or having confirmation that in your arms, I never belonged. How could you possibly decide the lesser evil of those two? When every road or path I take Seems to lead back to you? Should I close my eyes And flip a coin? Or go on living life without ever knowing If the loss of our love I’d mourn? Well... all the cards in my hand I’ve played. For the chance to see If you’d fly away or by my side you’d stay It’s a hard fact of life I have learned Just because you love someone It doesn’t mean your love they deserved Today I set you free my love To move on and Soar free To find your hearts desire Since it simply wasn’t me One day I imagine you’ll Reflect upon our love I hope you’ll wonder If by chance it had been sent from above

This is for the man I loved but could never truly have.
