Learning to let go and move on,
A journey I never thought I'd be on.
For so long, I held on tight,
To a love that I thought was right.
But as time went by, I began to see,
That happiness doesn't come from you or me.
It comes from within, from finding my own way,
From learning to love myself and let go of yesterday.
It's been a struggle, I won't lie,
To let go of a love that felt so right.
But now I see, it was just an illusion,
A temporary fix, a momentary fusion.
For all these years, I've held you close,
But now it's time to let you go.
To release the grip, to set you free,
And finally, learn to love me.
It's not easy, this journey of self-discovery,
To break free from this codependency.
To unravel the ties that bound us,
And find my own path, without your love as a crutch.
But with each step I take, I feel a little lighter,
As I let go of the weight that held me tighter.
I'm learning to be my own best friend,
And to love myself until the very end.
No longer will I wait for you,
To give me the love that I'm due.
For I am enough, just as I am,
And I'll no longer chase after a love that's a sham.
So goodbye to the past, to the love I once knew,
I'm learning to let go and love me, it's true.
It's been the hardest thing to do,
But I'm finally learning, to myself be true.
