Letting Go

for the Picture Poem This contest

Let go of your past

Like the billows up in the sky

You can feel so free, my dear

You will no longer ask why

 

Let go of your ghosts

The beasts of your yesterday

You should not be scared, my love

You can march on your own way

 

Let go of your worries

Let them be carried by gust

Like dewdrops in the morning

Through the day, they never last

 

Let go of your sorrows

          Like a balloon in your hand

Let it fly, let it go

Start a new life, learn to stand.

Letting go is never easy but we cannot be forever slave of the past. Very inspiring message, Dhaye.
