Not Yours to Fix

I've carried hearts that weren't mine to heal
Tried to be the calm in someone else's storm
I saw the cracks, but I still believed
If I loved hard enough, they'd be reborn
But love's not glue and I'm not the cure
It's not my job to carry what they never learned
You can pour oceans into empty hands
But if they won't reach back, they'll just let it slip through the sand
It's not yours to fix, not your cross to bear
You can light the way, but they've gotta care
You can hold them up, till you're breaking too
But healing's a door only they can walk through
Let go with love, let go with grace
Not every broken soul is your place
You're not cold, you're not weak
You're just finally choosing peace
You showed up when no one ever stayed
Gave pieces of yourself that you never got repaid
You turned pain into something soft and kind
But even angels burn out if they never unwind
You can whisper hope into a quiet room
But it won't echo back if they don't want truth
It's not yours to fix, not your war to fight
You can love them, but not lose your light
You can hold their hand, but not their fate
Sometimes walking away is how hearts elevate
Let go with love, let go with grace
Not every broken soul is your place
You're not cruel, you're not wrong
You're just learning how to stay strong
And maybe one day they'll find the dawn
But it's not your job to drag them along
You deserve love that doesn't drain
That lifts you up, not add to your pain
It's not yours to fix, not your soul to mend
Some stories start, but aren't meant to end
You gave your all, you shined so bright
Now it's time to save your own light
Let go with love, let go with grace
Not every heart is your saving place
You're not lost, you're not small
You're the bravest one of all
