Let This Be Light

Let This Be Light

If you're holding on

because you think I need you to—

you don’t.

If you’re staying in the shadow of what we were

because it feels safer than the unknown—

please, don’t.

I want you to move forward.

I want you to laugh without flinching,

to wake up without that weight

pressed against your chest

where my name used to sit.

We had something real.

Something good.

But not everything good

is meant to last forever.

You deserve more than memory.

More than reaching for something

that no longer reaches back.

Let me become a soft place in your past.

Let me fade gently—

not in bitterness,

but in peace.

Go where you feel light again.

Love louder.

Choose joy without guilt.

And if someday,

my name comes to you

like a breeze—

let it bring a smile,

not a bruise.
