Letting Go

Sometimes all you need in order to get over someone is for that person to stop playing games with you, to stop stringing you along like some puppet and to stop playing the tunes that you just love to dance to.
Sometimes all it takes is for the person to be open, honest and real with you.
Sometimes all you need is for the person to look right into your eyes and tell you, in no uncertain terms that you are not what they want.

You need to hear the words.
You need to hear from them, that it is over,
that you two are done,
that you two will never be.

But sometimes the person in question is a coward.
He is too selfish to let you go.
He wants you to be his fail-safe.
He wants you in his loveless clutches for life.
He want to fall back and forth into you as it pleases him (literally)

So he denies you the words that could save your life,
the words that could set you free,
the words that could give you a chance at happiness (with someone else)

This pushes you to make an executive decision.
You need to take back your power.
This man does not own you, you are no slave of his.
You need to protest, object!
You have to take matters into your own hands,
Mend your heart.
Free yourself from this love that you've allowed yourself to be a prisoner of.

My Mantra:  (with love from my bestee)
                      "Be okay my heart, Be alright" (repeat, repeat, repeat)

A line from Calafornication:  "I know you told me to believe in happy endings but if someone keeps screwing up, eventually you just gotta say 'Fuck you' or something to that effect"
