WHAT THEY LEFT

WHAT THEY LEFT
Let them keep what they took from you.

If you gave them love and they walked away,
let them keep that echo in their soul,
that warmth that now lives within them.
Don't fight for it;
if you gave it to them, it's because you could.
You have the ability to create more.

If you gave them time and they left,
let the memories serve as a refuge,
a trace of your days on their path.
If you gave them months, years of your life,
let them keep all the love you gave them.

Why do you want it back?
You don't owe anything.
Don't demand, don't demand, don't fight.
Let them keep what they need;
maybe they needed it more than you did.

The value of your love
doesn't lie in what they did with it.
Let them keep everything you gave them,
even if they only gave you pain in return.

How beautiful, isn't it?
Leaving them love, even if they've hurt you,
is the greatest gift.You'll always have more to give.©️ Umclite
