Strong Enough To Let You Go

by Jeff Mason — Read all 207 poems by Jeff Mason

Thursday, May 13, 2004

Won't you let me talk to you...

just one more time?

I know you're so afraid...
of sad good-byes.

I promise...
I'll have strength enough
for both of us;

Please, give me one last chance,
to look into your eyes.

You're afraid you won't be
able to go through with this;

That feelings from the past
will clearly show.

I promise...
I'll have strength enough
for both of us

I love you...

strong enough...

to let you go.

It does stir emotions most of us recognize. I've been reading your work for some time, now; this one has a different kind of energy. It seems to come from the heart. It's hard to let go when there's love. You made me feel that emotional tug. Good job, Jeff!
