Yes, sometimes you do have to let them go. But are they ever really gone? That's the struggle. They reappear when you least expect it and when you least want them to. Still...it helps to verbally say goodbye. Great set of poems, tim. 

thank you, Sir.  and you're right, i've been saying goodby to  jeff for years now ... but he always comes back. i suspect he always will.  thank You for your comments. i appreciate them, Sir

Damn tim... I hope that every step you take into a new day, every new memory you make, each word you write about letting go unleashes you farther from your past. So it won't be a battle to be won when it rears its ugly head.. 

Love you bunches

love you too, boss!  it's not so much of a battle now, things happened recently to make me remember, but it's okay. It will never fully leave me, i know that, but it's easier to deal with. and 1 and 2 are not about my past... but they may be more recent but they are water off a ducks back... hugs xo  thanks for your comments and support.

You face letting someone go - all the hurt, all the pain,  and whatever good there was. You tell it plainly, and eloquently. And now maybe the power he retained is diminished, and the light you offer rises. 

hey Parker xoxo  thanks for commenting. jeff doesnt have much power anymore. when i think of him, it's more with pity and sadness for his lot, rather than what he did to me. 

Lil brother... You are so much more than your past. Contemplation on those moments makes us stronger. Giving demons less hold on us. You have a powerful love to rise above. With a Sir who adores you! XOXO

A lot has already been said, so I'm just going to say "I love you lots" and good on you for having the courage to start your life anew.  

love you too Reader xoxo  thanks for always being there...

'Goodbye' this word itself sparks a sort of sadness weather it is temporary or permanent. The hardest part of life is to say goodbye! But I think u need to do it anyway. That person may stay with u forever but of course not physically. 

Ur poem has always been touching. Wonderful tim n I wish u the very best in life!!

I think, you didn´t let him go, you let yourself go. That is even better, because it is a act which empowers you and not something you just have to acept. Am I right?

 Love Sis.

May your path which lays before you get bathed in sunshine.

Maybe you are right. but not until recently, i think i kind of figured it out.. thank you, i hope the same for you xo

beautifully done. some goodbyes are more gut-wrenching than others, but all bring pain to some degree. maybe if we could see goodbyes not as endings, but the beginnings of new chapters in our book of life

Goodbyes are hard, especially when the person isn't there for you to say goodbye to. But, goodbye is also like closing a door, and when you do that another always opens. 

Wonderfully written as always timmie and very emotional.
