Giving Up On Loving Him

Folder: 
Poetry

I know that everyone says,

If you love him, let him go,

If it was meant to be, he'll return,

And if he doesn't, then you'll know.



And I remember the times he told me,

To go, he didn't need a girl there,

Believe me, I would if I could,

But I just can't help but care.



I've tried time and time again,

To let go of him, and live,

But everytime I seem to get closer,

I look back and there's that "if",



What if I make myself stop loving him?

And then he decides he wants to come back?

I guess that's something I shouldn't think of,

But I can't keep myself on the right track.



Without holding onto him, i fear,

Life will never been the same,

On the other hand, change is good,

And I can't spend life being afraid.



So I've reached this final conclusion,

Made this one last decision,

It's really all there is left to do,

I'm giving up on loving him.
