I had to let you go

All the empty promises,
The letters I never received.
The lies I told myself,
I thought you would never leave.

I held on for so long,
More then most would.
I did everything in my power,
More then I should.

I wanted to give you everything,
And be the one to never say goodbye.
But I don’t know what happen to us,
I was falling apart inside.

So I had to let go,
And move on for myself.
I still have all our things,
Sitting upon a shelf.

I don’t try to forget you,
But I have to live my life.
I can’t keep waiting to begin,
With so much unspoken strife.

Author notes

My ex, has so much hatered for me, because I moved on. He's locked up, and has been for a long time. I waited four years, and then all the sudden his letters stopped. He expected me to keep waiting, when I had no contact with him. I ended it, and I moved on. It caused so many problems between us. I just want to seal our broken friendship, and atleast be friends. I'm not going to get back with him, I have a boyfriend, and I'm happy.

Please tell me what you think
