A peaceful release

A peaceful release

A Poem by EmpressPoetess
"

Letting go of the past is vital to safeguarding the heart

"

With what malady is your heart filled,

Tearing down with no plans to rebuild?

Don’t give up on the good in reality

There still is good, though rare it may be

 

One must remember to forget

The past ills, so as not to regret

This warmth you still have to share

These reasons you still have, to care

 

What if you moved easy, like the river?

what peace you'd find in being a giver!

Why don’t you whisper like this tree?

It will calm your heart and set it free

Some very nice sentiments here... forged from experience... Of course it's not so easy to do.. but it's the way to sanity... I like the image of the tree and the river... Nature always knows...
