A Little Bit
Wanting to move on,
But don’t want to forget.
Need to loosen the grip,
But if I do,
Will it be too loose,
That you’ll slip away?
I shall make a little box,
And fill it full of you,
I’ll tie it tightly shut,
And put it away,
For just a little bit.
And though I love you so,
I need to move on,
Because I need to make new memories,
Read the rest of the poem Show less
And live my life again.
But when the time comes,
And I need to feel your comfort,
I shall pull box out,
Open it up,
And look deep in my heart,
I shall remember again,
But only for a little bit.
So with these last words,
I shall move on,
Though know I’ll always love you,
I just need to let go.
But only for a little bit.
