Le Fait de Permettre Va

~~Letting Go~~

Love at first sight
A phrase so trite.
I look to fate.

Together we're not
My love in thought;
my depression, innate.

Year after year
I lived in fear
you'd turn me away.

With age came bravery;
much-desired flattery
In words you say.

Just a taste
of your loving embrace
I'd give my life.

Your yes and your no
Tell me stay, tell me go
An inner strife.

Too long I try
Alone, I cry
Empty inside.

You'll never know
I'm letting you go:
THIS
is my last goodbye.
