Let Go, I Thought!

Let go, I thought,

I pondered over events of the recent past,
and let go, I thought.

let go, because it hurts when you hold too long,
let go, because I knew, I have to, all along,
let go, because it's not always good for you to keep,
as tears become frequent and wounds become deep,

I wondered all that and now, next what,
and let go, I thought.

I sometime wonder, did I decide too late,
what were the hopes for which I could wait,
or I just wanted myself, not to think,
staring at nothingness, but didn't want to blink

now I remember, perfect, things were not,
and let go, I thought.

more I remember, more I tend to regret,
My heart becomes heavy and eyes become wet,
and more I try to console my self,
more I realize, it's of no more help,

a memory to be kept, that's what I have got,
and let go, I thought.
