thanks 4 any opinions? When You Have to Let Go
By: me
When I felt like I was all alone, I was thrown a rope
I felt lost and unsure of what to do, but that special rope gave me hope
The rope talked to me like it knew me forever, it talked to me as if it loved me
For the first time in my life I felt like I found my life line, but inside I knew it could not be

Living alone for so long has a strange affect on someone, they become different
They learn to live alone, they learn to love it, and they believe that they need to be alone
No matter how tight the rope tried to hold me together, I found a way out
I need to be alone, but the rope is relentless, so I give the rope a name

The rope is now called babe, the rope calls me sweetheart
I finally feel the pleasure of love, but life hasn’t prepared me for it
I try to run because I’m scared, babe has hurt herself by holding me together
I find a dark place to hide, and babe starts to cry
I do not know what to do; all I know is that I cannot go back, so I leave a message
“Babe you are the best rope in the world, use your love to hold someone else,
Someone who knows how to love, someone who will not hurt you,
Someone better than me, someone a lot better than me”

So I am now alone again, but it’s different, I feel sad inside, I want to feel happy
Has loneliness turned on me? Why do I feel this way? Why? Why? Why?
I now realize that love is the greatest feeling ever, but what have done, I just threw it away
Is this the end? No, it’s not; who said that? Its babe, she was tied to my ankle this whole time
So now what do I do, I have stretched her so far, hurt her so much, there is only one thing that I can do
I cut her off my ankle “If you love someone, Let them go,” but keep loving them.
Babe I am so sorry, I want you to have the best in life. Someone will make you happier than I ever could.
