I'm releasing you a little at a time,
in droplets of salt water,
like the sea prays in its infinity,
like the moon feels tired.
I'm tearing you out of my life, slowly,
each cut, an echo in the wind,
each tear a torn embrace,
a whisper of love in the lament.
You are a shadow that dances in my footsteps,
a memory that runs in my veins,
but time spins its bonds,
and pain turns into chains.
I'm letting you go a little at a time,
like the sun says goodbye at dusk,
like the echo that returns to a myth,
like a dream that will be lost.
I'm letting you go, I feel it already,
with every wave that kisses the sand,
with every note of a sad wind,
I free you from this sorrow.
