Letting Go

Letting go Isn’t easy A fight can cause a loss of life Holding on to something That meant to be free Can only cause harm to you and me Compassion means Not expecting in return Instead it is with honest heartfelt concern A prayer is offered up Without an ego’s disrupt Give them to the Lord above So He may choose a velvet glove Bring me faith to walk away Give me strength to this I pray Leave my shallow wishes at bay Create more freedom Which to relay Little by little releasing that fear Until it is made abundantly clear This is not an end Just a new start For each of our human hearts
