Courage

For a long time

I wanted to hold on to you, to this feeling

Like a grudge

I never have to forgive nor forget

And

I did.

For a long time too

I wanted to let go of you

But

Then long before today,

I realized, I don't have to

Because It was only I who's persistent on holding.

Today.

After a very long time

I got the courage to release my hold, to open my hand that's holding on to you.

I learned you are not a grudge

Nor a balm to sooth my heart

And

Finally....

Today I have decided to let myself be free from the bondage I created and anchored to you.
