Let

A final breath, the last thing hits
A gasp of air, a final fit
To pouring tears, from angry tones
My mind is scattered, lost a home
The spinning arrow finally rests
But the mark remains upon my chest
The final words, to let me go
But why today to let me know
The day is clear, the skies are blue
Now blue is all my heart sees too
It soon will pass, I know this much
But I still wish I could feel your touch
I needed you, you helped me live
You scarcely took and loved to give
You loved me always, held me dear
Today you swept my heart with fear
But I understand, I do know why
But none the less, tears, I do cry
I loved you then, I love you now
You let me go to help me down
If you love somebody, you set them free
That’s why you’re doing it to me
But you taught me love and gave me home
I’ll forget you not, in my heart you’re sewn
