Letting Go Poem by Edwina Reizer

Can I fall in love again?
God only knows.
'Cause all I ever do you know
is remember how we were.
Those small little things that made us tick
and kept our hearts astir
are still alive inside of me,
all else became a blur.

But loneliness has crept right in
and darkened every day.
And even all acceptance
can't take my pain away.
What will I do?
Where will I turn?
What would you have me do?
Find someone to heal my heart
to help me make it through?

Can I start all over again?
God only knows.
'Cause the thought of someone else to love
has never crossed my mind.
For my memories of you are all so strong.
They never do unwind.
Would it be fair?
Would it be right
to another I might find?

I'm too young.
I must go on
or lose my sanity.
Life goes on and time does heal
and so quite patiently
I'll wait until the time is right
and when it is I'll know.
I'll start again with someone new
and sadly, let you go.
