People have a way of making themselves believe in words such as forever and everlasting. When you have found this ‘perfect’ love, all the world disappears and re-emerges as a new one full of laughter and joy, filled with all things beautiful and bright, and trouble-free; promises like ‘I’m forever yours’ and ‘I’m here until the end of time’ holds a certain truth and meaning. However, this world begins to crumble down like a heap of dirt beneath your feet when suddenly you learn that you have got to move on and let go of the utopian love.
Why does it hurt so much when you were the one left who has to learn to let go? When asked, you’d answer that it was never a bad relationship only that it had a bad ending, or that it simply was never meant to be. And so you go on with your desultory life, barely even living – praying and hoping that someday you’ll begin to trust again.
You are standing in front of a sunrise, yet you can’t find the beauty that lies before you; you’re wishing that you could find whatever it was that lies beyond the horizon, just as you wishes for the sea to swallow you whole. And so you endured the agony of escaping the bondage of that warped relationship; running thousands of miles away from that past you are trying to mend.

yeah, and i'm listening to this song.... "why do people cry, when they hear the word goodbye, in a lovesong...., da da da da da...."

nice accompaniment for this piece, huh?
a nice piece. though i feel melancholly after reading it and you're right..letting go of someone is the painful part of it specially if the only reason you'll do it is because you have to and not because you wanted to. :(
