--
It's been over three years since you passed away
Time has carried on and waits for no one;
I will always love you and you are deep in my heart
But I now need to move on alone.

As if in a locket you are locked away
So that I can once again smile;
I've started to feel alive again
I haven't done that for a good while.

So I'm letting you go from my heart that is beating
So that my life doesn't stand still anymore;
I can now start to breathe freely
But you my love I will always adore!

You never leave someone behind, you take a part of them with you and leave a part of yourself behind.

--

We must be willing to let go of the life we have planned, so as to accept the life that is waiting for us.
Joseph Campbell

Breathe. Let go. And remind yourself that this very moment is the only one you know you have for sure.

Letting Go Poems

--

I thought you loved me-that was what you said
Especially whilst you had me in bed;
I obviously have a different view
Of what love means than just words that are few.

This has been a wake up call
In fact it's kept me up all night;
Your words are cheap and I'll get out now
I know in the end I will be proved right.
Maggiemay

--

Let go. Why do you cling to pain? There is nothing you can do about the wrongs of yesterday. It is not yours to judge. Why hold on to the very thing which keeps you from hope and love?
 Leo Buscaglia

The grieving has gone on long enough
I need to stand on my own;
Like petals from a rose
This grief around me has grown.

It has protected me from carrying on
But now I feel that I must;
I feel scared that without you
It will all turn to dust.

So I blow away the cobwebs
And say Goodbye to you;
It's now or never I feel
Very strongly my darling-Adieu
Maggiemay

--

I just have to say
That I have got to go;
My feelings are not right just now
If they change I'll let you know.

Just who do I think I am
Is what you'll say I know;
But that won't change a thing
As I really have to go.

Difficult to put in words 
Harder to address;
I will promise you though
I will try my best.

I don't feel good at all
At saying this to you;
But for now the only thing 
For sure is that we're through!
Maggie-May

**

I don't think you heard me right
I'm leaving and right now;
You are not coming with me
I don't want you anyhow.

It's very sad it's gone this way
I'm not sure what to do;
But I know for sure that whatever it is
It will not be with you.

Living together turned from a dream
To a nightmare beyond compare;
Our lifestyles are so different
We never would be a pair.

So don't expect a letter
Or a message from me now;
As there's no point in dragging on
Otherwise we'll row.
Maggie-May

**

Moving on to pastures new
A new place of work I know;
New tasks and responsibilities
My skills I will have to show.

So I leave you comrades
With a smile on my face;
I'm sure I'll bump into you
When I return to base.

Moving On Letting Go Poems
**

If I have to move one more time
My gasket I will blow;
Landlords need to appreciate
The stress of having to go.

They say that moving house
Is one down on the list;
From losing a loved one
Maybe I'll get p...ed.

Holidays are on that list
But I think I would prefer;
To go on one of them
Than have my rent deferred.

**

One kind kiss before we part,
Drop a tear, and bid adieu;
Though we sever, my fond heart
Till we meet shall pant for you.
Robert Dodsley



I've been a false friend in your shadow
Though it is now time to go;
I've stepped out into the sunlight
Just so that you would know.

I'm sorry but I'm moving on
This time to pastures new;
I haven't treated you very well
I'm sorry, I am-it's true.

I cannot be a hypocrite
I've been one for far to long;
You deserve someone so much better
Me for you, is just so wrong!
