Let Go Poem by Mary Jesusa Villegas

It's hard to let go
when the past seems to be
the only hope for the future

It's hard to let go
when you know for sure
for you to be whole again
He's the only cure.

It's hard to let go when
you thought that
this person really cares
about you but
ignoring me.
Like I'm not a part of his
life anymore
and I'm just a complete and total
stranger
after all we've been through
together
His rudeness
like he doesn't know I'm hurting.
After all,
I was the only one who's feeling
a forthcoming and springing
fairytale between
us from the beginning.

His rudeness
is telling me
I have already suffered
and hoped
so much than
what I can still suffer or
hope for.

It's hard to let go.
But what makes it so easy for you
to let me
stay outside
and be taken by the winds of sorrow?
I still don't want to let you go
Tell me
Do you want me to go?
Please let me know.

After all
the past is only a useless fairy tale
and a distorted hope
To heal is to cope
with the wounds
remedied by space
and nursed by time.

Don't you worry.
The last thing that I could ever do
Though it's hard to
Let go.
