now, walk away

It has been the hardest thing, to let go,
to loosen grasp of the promises of you,

but now it's fine, it's over and through.

I've spent all this time holding on to it,

to realize now there is nothing there;

I've been needlessly holding on to air.

Looking forward to a time when you become nothing
more than hidden memories in the back of my head,

a set of faded souvenirs that I but cringe to recollect.
