Let Go with Grace

Cherish, forgive, move on

By Rohitha LankaPublished 9 months ago 1 min read

It is not difficult to forgive someone, but to trust them again is not easy.

It takes weeks or months, maybe even years, to make someone's heart feel warm.

It only takes a moment to chill someone to the heart.

While you can still breathe, be gentle with yourself. Don't run to be a song to be someone's breath.

Is it friendship or is it a relationship?

You breezed into my life, I let you pass.

You left me, yes, I waved and wished you joy.

What is not ours, do not take!

More often than not, hesitating or being reluctant gives rise to scenarios in which it's not worth it.

Time is a changing, and so are people.

Some things, try as we might, are lost forever once lost. We can't hold on to them!

Some things, whomsoever I miss, let it be. Explaining is useless.

Believe it or not, it's up to them. Explanation only for those who do not understand us.

When you meet, be happy.

When you're together, hold onto them.

Think about them when you are apart.

When you part ways, smile.

For there is a chance that this goodbye will be our last.

Finally seeing through, finally getting out, finally understanding, finally comprehending, finally each being well, finally no longer disturbing, finally letting you go. May in the next life, I never see, never miss, and never owe
