let Truth

Strings and things that cling
holding on never lets go
sometimes it is the hardest thing
but what if contrary to what you THINK
you actually let it come back to you?

What if really letting go
and release
was what brought you
what you wanted truly
deeply
in the first place?

What if somehow
it was easy
Rather than easier
said than done.

What if it was all really simple
less painful than popping a pimple
what if you just
LET GO.

Took a deep breath
got your feet wet

Not even knowing
what awaited you
on the other side
not even looking back
but driving from inside.

Letting what you carry on your back
fall away and let you float
what if you just followed your heart

It's weird
that's for sure

the truth

starts

I resist change
because i know it will never be the same again.

I know this moment is fleeting.
I know these feelings, will never taste the same.

I know, yet I embrace change.
For newer better things are yet to come.

But it is a great stream I am crossing,
yet again, yet again.

Is this the last time
will there ever be resolve?

Can the story ever really conclude,
when there are so many characters?

WHen there is so much energy
just waiting to be activated.

I've never cried and laughed
so hard as when I feel

this.

My mind is at a lost
so my heart tells me

but i misunderstand its messages
or perhaps
i dont


But no, i resist a little longer.
The path is still unkonwn.
I still can't see
but am only blinded by
my resistance.

What will happen if i let go?
Maybe by clinging to my desires
I am holding myself back
from experiencing true joy.

I just can't measure the current
circumstances

I can't translate
I feel it coursing through me

Maybe I can just dangle

long enough to let go

maybe i will be there to catch myself

having given myself a head start.

ends

Banana splits
and then you're full
Sun sand and fun
sunburn sunset

Cartwheels and
downward spirals

I'm starting to see
life
truth
It isn't all birthday cake
BUt it isn't all just
a flake of snow
melting on your mitten

In fact, especially
when you become quite smitten
it becomes richer fuller stronger
but the pain digs deeper
lasts longer

WHat a strange sight
I cry to take it all in
and why I must sleep at night
to visit
to dream
to fly
to get caught up in it all

THe beauty
the hope
the tears
sometimes it just doesn't last
enough years.

I'm glad I dont know
the future
it remains unseen
but then again knowing
would it change how we dream?

Would we awaken to the passing time
would we open our eyes and stare life in the face?
No.
I think we'd run and hide.

Not wanting to believe what is true
is worse than not knowing.

No matter how painful.
Life truly is a gift
as sweet smelling as a rose
without the thorns from which it grew

How could I have ever met you?

Is this a worthwhile price to pay?
Is it worth all the time we stay
too long, in the wrong place
not long enough in peace.

Is it the struggle that
makes it all balance out?

Such a tight rope walking
such a thin line crossing
is it really going to last?
Never.. because it all
eventually

d i s s o l v e s

only to be rebuilt
from the ashes

and like questions
asked again
there is something leftover
from what came before

and something new
adding freshness.

Where you put yourself
and your heart

matters

not always where you start
or where you will end
