Let Them, Just Let Them

Let them

Just, let them

If they want to choose something,

Or someone, over you

Let them

If they want to go weeks

Without talking to you

Let them

If they are okay with never seeing you

Let them

If they are okay with always

Putting themselves first

Let them

If they are showing you who they are

And not what you perceived them to be

Let them

If they want to follow the crowd

Let them

If they want to judge

Or misunderstand you

Let them

If they act like they can live without you

Let them

If they want to walk out of your life and leave,

Hold the door open, and let them

Let them lose you

You were never theirs

Because you were always your own

So let them

Let them show you who they truly are

Not tell you

Let them prove how worthy they are

Of your time

Let them make the necessary steps

To be a part of your life

Let them earn your forgiveness

Let them call you to talk about ordinary things

Let them take you out on a Thursday

Let them talk about anything

And everything

Just because it's you

They are talking to

Let them have a safe place

In you

Let them see the heart in you

That didn't harden

Let them love you
