it's never easy letting go
but such has become
a part of me
whenever my heart begins to soar
with the joy of knowing you
almost inevitably I have to let you go
flickers of hope and love
I might nurture to grow
stunted almost immediately
it's not so much your departure
but that your path and mine
seem never to converge into one
the hollow emptiness
that always follows
leaves me somewhat desolate, somewhat blue
but in time
as always all returns
to status quo
me alone with love and empty arms
you never alone with all your charms
once again I've learnt a lesson in letting go
but such has become
a part of me
whenever my heart begins to soar
with the joy of knowing you
almost inevitably I have to let you go
flickers of hope and love
I might nurture to grow
stunted almost immediately
it's not so much your departure
but that your path and mine
seem never to converge into one
the hollow emptiness
that always follows
leaves me somewhat desolate, somewhat blue
but in time
as always all returns
to status quo
me alone with love and empty arms
you never alone with all your charms
once again I've learnt a lesson in letting go
