Letting Go

Letting go of a hand that I've grown so accustomed to holding
Letting go of that hand can be so hard
Letting go of a hand that was there to protect and defend me
Letting go of that hand can be so hard

There was bound to come a time. I had to find my way.
Our time has come for letting go.

Moving on in my life, there's so much about me that I'm unsure of.
I must find my own way on my own.
You will always be with me and I will always need your love.
And it's so hard to let you go.

Even now, though we know how my heart wants to hold on forever.
It's the hardest thing I know. But now it's time for letting go.
