Analysis of Releasing Chains



Since you keep pushing me away,
I'll no longer try to make you stay.
This journey, once filled with hope and zest,
Now comes to an end, for it's for the best.

No longer will I hold you in my heart,
For your absence has torn our love apart.
The promises we made, so easily broken,
Forever is a word now left unspoken.

I'll release the chains that bound us tight,
And bid farewell to the dreams of our flight.
The time has come to find my own way,
To seek new horizons, a brand new day.

Though it hurts to let go of what we had,
I'll find solace in knowing it wasn't all bad.
The memories we shared, once filled with bliss,
I'll cherish them now, but I'll no longer persist.

For love should be a dance, not a fight,
And I refuse to hold onto what isn't right.
So goodbye, my dear, with a heavy heart,
I'll part ways with you, ready for a fresh start.

No longer will I promise forever's embrace,
Instead, I'll seek love that won't be erased.
This chapter ends, but my story continues,
With lessons learned, and a heart that renews.
