Letting go

It is harder..To do the right thing and let go

To not say and to quench

To not do and feel

Since one cannot be pushy

One cannot be so intense

One cannot, try as one might

Engineer love

No need to be morbid or depressed

There's so much more to life

Than that one person and that one feeling

A world within a globe

All protected and safe

But the fledgling must leave its nest

And look out for lands beyond

Must learn to sever the ties that bind

And learn to live...And live happily

Since, life cannot be cocooned

And lead sheltered

It is not the end of all things, or the

beginning of a new one

It is simply learning to accept, to live

And live happily, so that one can be sane

To live, and take things in your stride

To live, like there's no chance except today

To come home to blessed sleep...which befits tiredness

To be so weary that it blocks out all thoughts

To focus so much, that everything else blurs

in perspective,...in reality...in life

To fall at last with weary feet and mind

With no thought for what tomorrow may bring

To sleep and sleep

To live and live

To not hurt, not die a million deaths

Every single day
