learning how to let you go.
i worry about you
that, maybe you’re not alright.
maybe you’re hurting too,
like i do all the time.
maybe you find it hard
to stay in one place
because you’ve been hurt too much
though i hope,for you,
this restlessness is just a phase.
i worry that you will turn a blind eye
to the path you’ve been shown
i worry that one day,
you may not be here at all.
i know.
i know you have to go,
although sometimes i hope you don’t.
sometimes i have to catch myself,
asking someone, somewhere
who could control.
i almost ask them to not let you go.
but i stop myself,
because i know.
i know you have to,
it’s your life to live.
and you have to move forwards
even if that means
that you should forget.
