    What I Let Go
    It's simple
    continue on and leave the past behing
    It is said you can't change a person
    Well, not for the better at least
    Perhaps I may have changed him for the worst
    By spoiling and catering to his every need
    I may have changed his personna about me
    "She'll always be there, she my girl"
    But I didn't stay that way for long
    Had to move on

    Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free
    I'm nobody's cow, so I had to stay away physically
    For me, physical ties into emotion
    Then I realize we're not together anymore and I'm hurt
    But I can't be mad at him because I brought it upon myself
    Because I let go of somebody that I no longer belonged to myself

    When power leads man towards arrogance, poetry reminds him of his limitations. When power narrows the area of man's concern, poetry reminds him of the richness and diversity of existence. When power corrupts, poetry cleanses.

    John F. Kennedy (1917-1963) Thirty-fifth President of the USA
