Fly Away

As each golden day passes and fades, I grow a little more.

I had you caged, and now I know you soar.

I thought I was protecting you, from things the world would bring.

If fact I was preventing Earth, from listening to you sing.

I like to think we helped each other; learning as we went.

Learning how to love another, during all the time we spent.

The came a time when we became not best for each other.

I recognized and let you fly, into the arms of another.

But for now just fly, fly strong and free, I know we cannot speak.

I looked into our future, it would have been me that kept you weak.

So fly my love. It’s hard to see, and even harder to say.

I know that this was best for us; maybe we will meet again someday.

I know that you will make me proud,

I will do the same for you.

I’m sorry if I held you back.

I hope all your dreams come true.
