Poem: Reasons for Letting You Go

There are many reasons for letting you go
Here are some that I want you to know
One is the freedom to be who I am
And living a life without being a sham
Second is the lies that I hate to be told
And promises never kept, now getting old
Third is pretending to love and to care
But when needed most, never being there
I could go on and on but that won’t make you change
So I’m saving my breath going out of range
I will never forget you but I must move ahead
So there is no more us, you and me we are dead
