Letting Go MAG

By Anonymous

   



He remembers the castles she built in the sand,

How they'd go for an ice cream, him holding her hand.

He remembers the times past her bedtime,

The glasses of water, the nursery rhymes.

He remembers the puppy she wanted so much,

All the peanut butter sandwiches she wanted for lunch.

He remembers her chubby face shining with happiness,

As she tried on her mothers's wedding dress.

He remembers her yesterday,

Dressed in that same dress, her face aglow.

He remembers how he gave her away,

And realizes he must let go.

&ldquo;Yes I love him. I love him more than anything else in this world and there is nothing that I would like better than to hold on to him forever. But I know it&#039;s not for the best. So no matter how much my heart is going to break, I&#039;ve got to let him go so he can know just how much I love him. Maybe if I&#039;m lucky, he&#039;ll come back, but if not, I can make it through this.&rdquo;

Its beautyful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
