Let go
let go
R e l e a s e. . .
Let go of all that is my past
like words on paper discarded
shredded, torn, strewn upon the ground
let it be carried by the wind,
twirling, whirling, dancing,
– scattered away
Let go of all that was before
like spent air turned sour
held deep within our lungs, unrelenting in our chest
let it loose into the universe
exploding, expanding, dispersing
– exhaled out
Let go of old ego, self and id
like old lovers who never call
bitter, self-absorbed, their passion rendered impotent
let them loose upon themselves
consuming, devouring, imploding
– cast off.
