Why It's so hard to leave
someone whom you love,
Why It's so hard
to let it go,
Whom you love someone so much,
Letting it go,
It's never been so easy,
If you love someone,
you feel like crying,
you've been trying so hard,
not to let your love go,
don't want to hurt yourself,
but you've to let someone
to go from your life,
I know,
Its not easy to keep ,
you lose it easily,
Letting it go,
It's not easy
to keep your love that long,
And that love was easy
to keep,
you lose it easily,
Letting it go,
It's hurt your heart,
I know you 've loved someone so much,
It's so hard
to let it go,
Letting it go,

'Tis truly hard to lose of part of yourself Vandana... and when you lose someone you love, you lose a special part of yourself.
Nicely written.

This poem made me think of the saying, "If you love something, let it go; if it comes back it's yours to keep, if not, it was never yours in the first place." There is a lot of emotion in here, Vandana.

Vandana-

this held a lot of sadness and yet pure truth in it at the same time. letting someone you love go is probably one of the hardest things a person has to do. but i agree with the quote Elizabeth used...if love comes back to you, then it was meant to be..if it doesn't then it wasn't. i know that doesn't help the heart much when it's hurting..but in time i think the heart heals, at least partially. take care of yourself and thanks for sharing this part of yourself with us.

Yes, it does hurt so very much. You've expressed the pain very well.

Vandana, I too know how it feels to let someone you love go.  Your poem is well written and so painfully expressive.  Thanks for sharing.

Take care,

Vandana I like the thoughts here...there are certain places in letting go where it seems like the hardest thing in the world..but its not...but we don't feel that way at the time. I'm still trying to let go of someone..it is an ongoing process.  We desperately hold on to someone we loved and it keeps us from going on with our lives and really loving the ones we are with now..James

Vandana, I liked this poem.  I used to have problems letting go of love.  Whenever I do now, I say to myself that I want him to be happy.  I would not want him to be alone and lonely because I love him.  Sometimes you can love someone, yet he or she is not right for you.  So I agree with jmlee, you have to let go to find the one that is right for you.

Vandana

A country singer wrote a song called "If it don't come easy better let it go"   I've tried to make someone love me before and its like water running up a hill.   Let it go girl.
