i saw this on someone's friendster profile while looking around..
Letting Go
Why does one have to say goodbye,
When love still resides in his heart?
When caring is still what he seeks to give
When all the feelings still exist?
Love spoken is not always returned
Nor given back for whatever it's worth
But one has to concede
...with much pain
...with much tears
If letting go shows that you love not just much
...but more.
Defeat is not what has been victorious
But triumph for accepting what is truth
For letting go of someone you could not have
But, still, within...the heart unceasingly loves.
To let go is not to forget
For forgetting dissolves the memories of time
To let go is not to believe the lies
For the lies deprive you of true love
To let go is to seek to realize one's love
The love which lives deeply in the heart
So deep that the roots have endured...
the pain...
the tears...
the goodbyes...
That if when he hears again, "hello"
He would not regret his letting go.
and i must say..this is a rather..nice and true poem.. and also reflects on how much the eprson's eart has endured.. why cant love just be nice.. like what it is in te Corinthians.. what Paul said to them.. wouldnt things be nicer? wouldnt the world be more peaceful? God knows.. heh.
