Let Them Poem by Collette Y Anderson Williams

Let them.
Let them choose
to lose you.
Let them,
but love them anyway.

Let them.
Let them leave.
You, too,
must let yourself leave.
Leave the hurt
and the pain behind
and let them leave you.
Let them.

Let them.
Let them choose
to deceive you,
betray you,
abandon you,
reject you,
hurt you.
Just let them leave you
-whether emotionally or otherwise.
Let them.

Let them.
Still, you must love them.
Let them be
what they truly
portray themselves
to be.
Let them.
And let yourself be free.
