Once Poem by connie Engstrom

I once had a love that made me feel good inside
But I let him go to sort out my feeling
For him and the other him

They were settle I thought
But then again are they
Then he called and now there back
I don't know if I should hang on or let go

To hang on I feel
I'll just be putting myself through more hurt and pain
And I've gone through enough pain and hurt
With him in the past

To let go it will be hard on me
But I have to let go again
I know it will take time to get over him

Maybe a week or two
A month or two
Even a few years
But I'll live with the hard times
As best as I can

I once had a love
Who made me grow up to be a woman
he did his best to love me

But not the kind of love
I wanted for the rest of my life

Things are best as they are
And allow things to be as they are
Till we both know what we want out of life
