Time to Let Go

“Time to Let Go”

It’s an age-old line, one you likely know;
When you love someone, you must let them go.
Can I really do it?  I don’t have a choice,
I can only listen for that small quiet voice.

If you loved well, and yet they still leave,
Keep your chin up, ‘tis not time to grieve.
Give it your best, that’s all you can do,
If the love was real, it will come back to you.

That's what is said, but is it really so,
Will love find its way, if I can let go?
Maybe not this one, but some loving heart,
To bring me some peace and make a new start.

That’s what I have now, at least as it stands,
Just place my cracked soul into my God’s hands.
Someday I’ll find joy, I may even smile,
As I tread down this road, passing many a mile.
