Wish I could follow the truth

I will let you go,

Though it feels like you're woven into my soul.
  
Right now,
you seem like everything I need,

But without you,
I must learn to breathe.
I will let you go,

Someday your shadow won’t linger so.

I’ll think of other things,

Though my heart still aches and sings.
I will let you go,

And in that,
I’ll find myself again—

Everything good you once saw in me.

Yet, a part of you will stay,

A quiet warmth that time
won’t take away.
