Letting Go

I’m screening your calls
Deleting your text
Don’t know what you’re thinking
Or what you’ll do next

I know you’re not happy
With the way it turned out
There’s no changing my mind
Of this I’ve no doubt

No convincing or urging
No talking it through
There’s nothing that can happen
No future for me and you

I know my heart
And how it should be
The feelings that should come
And what’s best for me

The passion and sparks
That do come with love
The things we were missing
Our relationship devoid of

I had to let go of you
To keep lookin for what I need
I hope we both find it
And that we both succeed
