Who I Am

Who I am is because of you,
You loved me with a love that was pure and true.

I took you for granted for many years,
And now all I know how to do is shed my tears.

I let you slip away,
And that is something I live with each day!

But I need to remind myself that you suffer no more,
You are in a better place than before!

You are my angel and will always be,
And it is time I let my heart be free.

Who I am is because of you,
I finally know what I need to do.

I free my heart from all the pain,
All the pain that had me going insane.

I am ready to close the door to the past,
My grief and sorrows will not last.

Beautiful! And I like the looking forward aspect. Not without grief, nor memories, but with life. I like it.
