Time to Let Go

Sitting in silence, walls echo your pain,

Thoughts of another, they drive me insane.

Every sweet word turns sharp in the light,

I just want to be your one, not another fight.

You speak his name like it’s a soft song,

I hear the warmth, but it feels so wrong.

You say you love me, but it's hard to believe,

Every mention of him makes me want to leave.

I can't keep holding on,

While your heart’s elsewhere drawn.

If he’s your answer, then why prolong?

Set me free, just where I belong.

If you need him, then go,

Find the love that you want, let it flow.

I’m still here in the shadows, you know,

But I can’t be the one that you outgrow.

You deserve happiness, I’ll let you be,

But please don’t keep breaking the heart of me.

I hear the laughter, I see the spark,

While I'm drowning in thoughts, lost in the dark.

You say I’m your sun, but he’s the moon,

What if I fade away, what comes too soon?

Time to gather strength, let’s make a choice,

I can't fight whispers that drown out my voice.

If it’s him that can give you the life you seek,

Then I’ll step aside, it’s my heart that’s weak.

If you need him, then go,

Find the love that you want, let it flow.

I’m still here in the shadows, you know,

But I can’t be the one that you outgrow.

You deserve happiness, I’ll let you be,

But please don’t keep breaking the heart of me.

Maybe one day, when the dust has settled,

You’ll realize my love was never meddled.

This isn’t a game, it’s tearing me apart,

I just want the truth, the voice of your heart.

So if you need him, then go,

But remember the love we used to know.

In the quiet of night, if you feel alone,

I’ll be here waiting, still holding my phone.
