Poetry-"Let it Go"

Eyes of blue and green
They watch, these passersby
And she takes it all in, deep down in her soul.
A clash of metal in the distance
Unnoticed by all but her
It reverberates, she swears, but no one else hears it
Like a cry in her ear, dealt like a blow
But they say,
“Let it go, let it go”

The color of the sky was different that day
She couldn’t explain it
Clouds moving too quickly
In the absence of wind
Those eyes, they stare again
As she looks to the sky
It’s ending, she knows.
Again they say,
“Let it go, let it go”

With penetrating eyes,
it’s a wonder they don’t see
The end that approaches
As the tide leaves the shore.
The moon doesn’t shine in the night
And the days, they are dimming.
The change still so subtle, only she sees it grow
So they say,
“Let it go, let it go”

It’s here now, she knows.
It’s happened, it’s over, but to them it’s the same
Eyes so quick to look and so slow to see.
The hurt is inside as she copes with the loss
A tear for the mourning of change
“It’s missing,” she says
She tells them so
Yet on the wind she hears,
“Let it go, let it go”
