The Art of Letting Go

The art of letting go
Is a simple, needed art
So often overlooked and lost,
Leaving the artist ever reaching
Towards a light now passed.
It’s a deep breath in
And then let out forever,
Transforming thought patterns
And placing memories once dear
In the ground to be forgotten.
It’s when you hear news
But don’t give in to darkness
That beckons your frail heart,
And it’s refusing to cry
Over tear stained hopes long
Shattered and scattered forever.
It’s the fight to step
Forward out of the night,
Past the crumbling old year
Into the new where summer
Dances in new dreams of hope.
The art of letting go
Rips at your core and
At times, forging on seems
Futile and yet know this;
It is the most worthwhile
Art to be learned of all.
