The Strength to Let Go

May 28, 2024

Letting go, it sounds so simple,
Yet it’s one of life’s hardest trials,
To bid farewell to love and memories,
That once brought us endless smiles.

Courage must be summoned deep,
To say goodbye to hearts we’ve known,
To places, faces, cherished dreams,
And seeds of love we’ve sown.

But hold not to the chains of sorrow,
That wrap around your aching heart,
For clinging to what’s meant to fade,
Will only tear your soul apart.

Misery may take its toll,
And seep through every vein,
Until it builds a fortress strong,
Of never-ending pain.

So find the strength within your core,
To let the past release,
For in the act of saying goodbye,
You’ll find a sense of peace.

Embrace the new, the yet unknown,
And let old shadows fall,
For in the art of letting go,
You truly live it all.
