Letting Go Poem by samuel moses okello

So consuming was your love
That every day brought sunny
Blue skies
But seeing you in another mans arms
Just killed my mojo and yet the reality is
I must just let go of you…………….

The days and nights are lonely without you
I miss your nagging, I miss your jokes
I miss your bragging and teasing, it looks like my
Evening has come and the night is falling on my social life
Yet the truth is letting go of you…………….

My folks just can’t stop singing your praises and to me it’s a sign
That you, on top of charming me, you wowed them too
This is good for my ageing mum but my broken heart may never mend with you
Around and so I let go…………………………

Some times the tears of my tearing eyes scald my face, I know the cure
To this new disease yet I would rather die wishing I could forgive you
As I go to my resting place I know, I must let you go
You are missed but I must let you go
Adieu……..
