Letting go

I’m the type of person that always holds on to tight  
To things that hurt me and keep me up at night  
Always feeling it was worth it  
And the pain was worth the fight  
But one day something happened  
I think I had enough  
I let go of the thing  
 that I thought I loved so much  
I thought I would be broken  
That I would be fucked up  
But the weight just lifted off my shoulders  
Freeing me to love  
I don't hold onto things that hurt me now  
It's not worth the time and pain  
When there's someone out there searching  
Who will love you just the same  
Only Keeping you up at night    
To ease the stress of days
