I have to let you go
I can't hold it in
I have to stop

Even though I love you
I have to respect
That you are gone
I cannot bring you back
No matter what I do
Just know
That I will always love you

Goodbye my love
Not forever
But only for right now

Kayla
You are free
Free to fly

I wrote this because I really need to stop holding it in the sadness and the anger I have. Due to my girlfriend killing herself.

Reminds me of my brother, after he went away, in which I can connect to. I feel great that I can connect to you as well through this poem.
