The Power of Letting Go

Letting go of someone for everyone seems to be the hardest thing to do, especially if that person already made a mark in your life. Somebody special to you and was there all thru the years, months, or days in your life. We always remember the things that had happened, the experiences you’ve been thru, it could be that saddest or the happiest moments. You can always recall that there was this moment in your life that nothing else matters in this world and that within this world the only significant thing that exists is between you and the person you love. To lose someone special gives pain that you wont know when its end. And every time you hear a hymn of a love song, makes you remember and even cry.

But despite all these, all the uncertainties it would bring, some people find the courage of letting go. Though some people would just let go without any valid reason, and just because they found somebody new, there are these few people who decided to end things because what matters to them is the benefit it would bring if they decide to set themselves free. You would know these when you ask these people about their past love and look at their eyes, you will somehow feel the emptiness they are going thru. Well, there are these things in life that, no matter how hard a person tries, things do change, and sometimes they change the way you don’t want them to be.

Anyways, life must go on for everyone. We must keep in mind that letting go of somebody opens up a new horizon to explore, a new day to uncover, and a new way to savor the flavor of life. A new beginning to start, better remember the days that have happened to let you smile out of it, rather than making you cry. Look at the past as a guide, a learning tool that will help you recover from the sad things that you have been thru and make you avoid it in the future.

The power of letting go is just as good as the power of loving for the first time. So just move on and I tell you, you will have, if not better things than before, at least it would be much different and make you enjoy life more to the fullest.

When Love Waits

To get you away from me is the thing I regret for in my life. I took your love for granted, and all I'm dreaming now is to have a second chance. A second chance for love. A second chance to love you again. To make you feel that you are loved. And even though I don't show it all the time, I am the person that is constantly loving you. You will always have my heart.

Everyday and every night, I long for your presence near. Waking up everyday, hoping in seeing your smile. Day by day, in my every wake, and when I look and you are not there, I just close my eyes and fold my neck, and imagine that you’re right there beside me. Making me feel I am attached to you. I may look as though I am a strong man, but the thing that's true is I am getting weaker everyday as I waited for your return.

I just want to be with you, I don't know if all my life I will wait. Waiting and waiting, trying to forget the unforgettable you. Like a melody that plays in my head, no matter how hard I try not to sing it, I kept on humming its tune. I don't know if to wait for you is the best thing to do, I really have no idea. When I am faced with difficult questions, I don't give up until I find its answers. But this question of uncertainty, of doubt, I can’t find the answers to it. And even though I know it is futile to wait, I just kept on waiting and waiting.

Is this Love that keeps me holding on to a love lost? If so, when will this love burn in time and fade away? Until I have no more strength left in me? Or until my heart beats no more?
