How much more can I take?
How much longer 'till I break?
I cant fight it any longer,
It's not making me any stronger,
it's just time for me to let go
and start all over again,
a fresh start,
a new beginning.

It's holding me back,
taking me off track,
Pulling me down,
I just need to turn around,
and start all over again,
a fresh start,
a new beginning.

The author's comments:
This is a poem that i wrote about a guy that i was dating for a while. Everyone told me that he was up to no good and things that he was doing and I chose not to listen to them, and as months passed by my feelings got stronger for him and I just didn't want to listen to what others were trying to tell me. I didn't take the time to listen to what others were saying until it was too late. And I was in love with him, but he was holding me back from many things in life. So I had to make a choice, and I did what I had to do and let him go. Then it was a fresh start after that. A new beginning..
