Not Easy to Let Go

i said that i was done-could do no more-couldnt be your shoulder-you took it well-that made it harder-i was in over my head inside-i was losing my mind-not a day goes by where i don think of you-part of me wishes it wasnt true-i try to find peace-my heart tosses and turns-its at war with all the plans i had before-i hear you knocking but i cant open the door-i pretend not to hear-but i tear inside-youre begging for a place to hide-solace-a refuge to call your own-youre running from the place you prayed to call home-hoping that getting away will take away the pain-and forever i will pray-find the void and fill it with the only One who can satisfy-overdue but worth the wait-its every souls torment-out of reach yet we keep reaching-stop-let your hand fall to your side-you have something to offer this world-dont live by its rules-life is what you make it-make it your own-see the writing on the walls-every move youve made-recorded-you stumble over things once owned-darkness settles-the home of the light switch unknown-its getting harder to let go-harder to give back-youre eyes used to looking at the past-what was-what could have been-you cant believe shes gone-lips telling you to move on-you cant-youve tried-love is overwhelming-did you expect it to hurt so much-is this what you asked from love-expectations made now youre afraid-told yourself to forget but you wont-remembering provides a morbid comfort-the pain-a mistake?-its making you pay-you crucify yourself-its her face you see as you bleed-has forgiveness been reached?-youre running-hoping for peace-you know its not gonna stop-youre convinced-im not-this can be overcome-all that lies have undone can be restored-mountains shouldnt be ignored-love does not give up-we give up on love-you want to hear the line"youre enough, youre all mine"-you try to fight the time-its all in your mind-cry-youre losing your grip on a point to this life-dont believe the lies-satan will force you to swallow them-you prayed itd be easy to stay-all your dreams turned to fantasy-you close your eyes and see her face-everywhere you turn youre reminded of what didnt take place-accept my humble apologies-things didnt go the way you hoped-so run-i wont stop you-i pray youll find what youre looking for-go to the places you already know-dont look back-just go-but this will always be home-i know you know-but run..til you fall-run til you run into God-run til your troubles beat you to your destination-actions determined by frustrations-logic out the window with everything you thought you knew-this is not the boy i talked for hours with-what happened to him-did self pity win-do you enjoy wallowing in it-are you looking for a reason to stay-you know you cant look at me-i dont want you to go-i dont think its safe-but i cant beg you to stay-not the role i was meant to play-so take a step-ill take another-no matter what-ill be there-just look over your shoulder-but dont cry-let Christ dry your tears-let Him mend your tears-you want to run-run there-to the arms that are always open-to the love that is forever-hang onto Him-He'll take you out of this place-to where you belong-you get dizzy from what lifes become-youre not the only one-you make me want to cry-i feel like i lost-what i cant tell you why-strangers weep-for you...for me-oceans deep-thats where i want your fears to be-youre lost without her-thats not true-hearts broken-all tokens used to replay what went wrong-times passed-too late to turn back-whats done is done-lift your head-see the Son-only whats ahead can you now change-smile-cry tears of sweet relief for better days-reconcile-forgive yourself as youve been forgiven-dont ask God to take it and continue to wear the shame-His blood covered that-in all your frailty-He meets you where youre at-youre not the only fragile one-people change-we will break and then be made whole-fragile but beautiful-you feel forsaken-left with your mistakes-its your curse-your memory-eyes have grown tired-you prayed not to be wrong this time-and its not my job to hold your hand-weve been through this-i cant-you wonder who will be there when you wake-the Son of Man is here to stay-you want to step out of the conscious world-will that do any good-you cant do it alone-but feel it would be easier-come and take a walk with Him tonight-He will show you a brighter side-one no mortal eyes have seen-a canvas just for you-and you wont understand-youre not meant to comprehend-not yet-but when you wake youll see the light-and He'll be at your side-as He was when you closed your eyes-you cant control the things that she cant do-you can control you-here in this moments weakness-shed the tears-move on-the warmth fading-you beg for its return-but cling to the memory-somethings better than nothing-you want to know what life looks like from the other side-youll see-an open mind cant find all you hide-a polished lie-saying its altright-as long as it comes back someday-its gone to stay-earn the right to speak-lips buckle-emotions freeze-i looked away-i wanted to stay-i know its better this way-you cant have me when i have the one you want-yesterday will be okay-you thought it would last forever-He'll move you to something better-i know youve not forgotten-but theres nothing left to remember.....
