"When I let go of who I am, I become what I might be." Lao Tzu
I loved you long before I met you... some days, I forget that you are now gone, and mourn as if hearing it for the first time. Our love was dewy grass and starry nights... John Lennon and full moons, summer breezes and pine trees... and a betrayal that broke me... a million shattered pieces, many never found. My heart cocooned, refused to love completely. Then... I forgave you... in my solitude of you and me... peace, finally. My feet in the sand, shackled no more, ocean breeze swept over me... I let you... and me... and the love that shaped all that I am... go. Forgiveness released me. But then you left again... for good this time... my words were never heard... my forgiveness never felt. I hope you found a better path, in the other world you now walk... you are always with me, always within me... It's time to let go... xoxo
