Letting me go

Poetry/Prose love and relationship, poem Tsin Kei August 23, 2025 0 Comments

Letting me go

You say you let me go
for my own good.
But I know better.
You chose the weight of bills
over the light in my eyes.
Chose the fear of falling short
over the chance
of holding me close.
You didn’t choose what’s best for me.
You chose what felt safest
for you.
