It's hard to let go

I think once you read this one, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. The real question is, who has the harder time letting go?

Untitled

A young man rises from his bed to find he is alone.

The one that he loved so much has left him by fate.

He realizes that he must face this world alone but fears his lost love does not understand.

He opens his French doors

to the second floor balcony in his funeral clothes and starts to sing.

"Jamas senti en el alma tanto amor

Y nadie mas que tu, me amo

Por ti rei y llore, renaci tambien"

The sunset sky starts to turn from a bright orange to a soft gray.

There is a storm coming. Though he can hear the thunder

in the distance, he continues to sing.

"Lo que tuve di, por tenerte aqui

Ya se que despedirnos es mejor

Sufriendo pagare mi error

Ya nada sera igual, lo tengo que aceptar

Ya hallar la fuerza en mi para este adios"

He continues to sing and raises his head to the sky to sing to God.

He explains that he has accepted this turn of fate,

but he does not know why his love's soul would stay to hurt him.

He begs for God to make it understand. Though rain starts to fall, he continues to sing.

"Alejate, no puedo mas

Ya no hay manera de volver el tiempo atras

Olvidate de mi

Y dejame seguir a solas con mi soledad

Alejate, ya dime adios

Y me resignare a seguir sin tu calor

Y jamas entedere que fue lo que paso

Si nada puedo hacer, alejate"

Now, he closes his eyes to hold back what is coming. He can feel

his love holding him once again. He begs for peace,

but the ghost of love will never leave him. He tries to explain

that he will move on in pain, but the ghost must leave him.

In his heart, he begs for serenity, and still he sings.

"No voy a arrepentirme del ayer

Amando te hise mujer

Por el amor aquel, por serte siempre fiel

Hoy tengo que ser fuerte y aprender"

He falls to his knees and begins to cry. He can't turn around to see

the ghost of his love. He cries that she must live so that others

may know of the love they shared together. He takes no

regrets in their love. He cries harder, and still he sings.

"Alejate, no puedo mas

Ya no hay manera de volver el tiempo atras

Olvidate de mi

Y dejame seguir a solas con mi soledad

Alejate, ya dime adios

Y me resignara seguir sin tu calor

Y jamas entedere que fue lo que paso

Si nada puedo hacer, alejate"

By now, the rain is falling harder and the lightning flashes brighter

then the sun during the day on the small town. The storm

shows the same rage that is in his heart. Once again,

the ghostbegs for him to turn and look, but he knows not to. He turns

his heart to stone and understands that he has said "good-bye". He understands that he

must live with her smell on his mind and the warmth of his love's skin far from him. Though

the wind and rain make him cold and shiver, he continues to sing.

"Alejate, no puedo mas

Ya no hay manera de volver el tiempo atras

Olvidate de mi

Y dejame seguir a solas con mi soledad

Alejate, ya dime adios

Y me resignara seguir sin tu calor

Y jamas entedere que fue lo que paso

Si nada puedo hacer, alejate"

The thunder and lightning have passed. Now all that's left is rain. But it is not rain. It is the

tears of a thousand angels crying with him. They cry because they can not tell him that his love is with them and loves him very much. The ghost is a gift from the angels to bring him peace, but he does not understand. His face marked by a trail of tears, he begs one more

time to God and to the ghost to let him cry the rest of his days. God listens to him and

takes the ghost from the room. The angels cry harder knowing the gift has been taken.

With his last strength, he turns to see the ghost is gone. His trial of pain is over. The last

person to cry is is angelic love. He lifts his head back to the sky, and says. "I love you, too."

Until next time.
