how can i let this go?

a visible frown
a forehead down
two sad eyes
thousands of tears that won't ever dry
how can I let this go?

a body getting sick
a mind getting lost
a man going crazy
thousands of feelings that won't ever depart
how can I throw this away?

a broken heart
a stolen dream
thousands of broken promises
how can I overcome it?
how can I catch my breath again?
