Quiet Poetry Lounge : I Have Let Go

[GeorgeM]

I HAVE LET GO
Of unhappiness...past pain
I could'nt find the sunshine
Because I couldnt see past the constant rain
That always had me soaked
So I used to stay drenched
My struggles were my own doing
And I was my own worst enemy

But I Have Let Go

Matured enough to finally forgive
I no longer accept struggling and adversity...
As a reality
Have grown into an even stronger mentality
No longer do I accept any amount of strife
Nor do I welcome any negativity into my life
There may even be those that wish me harm...
Finally I have realized exactly who karma is
I have given up the ghost of me...
Like Christ did on the cross
Like that brave Queen let go of her life...
In the evil grasp of Katrina

I HAVE LET GO

Of senseless fears
I have wasted many useless tears
My prejudices
My stereotypes
My spirit...once a caged Eagle
Now set free
Soaring the twilight skies
Free...from any earthly worry
Gone...are mentally induced afflictions
Now a stress and drama free condition
Finally...the God within me
Has let go of the old stubborn me
I breathe deeply...exhale a sigh
I exist freely...now I truly know why
I can live my life...as golden as the day the sun was given birth
And gave maternal kisses....all over the earth

I HAVE LET GO

Of those...
That have claimed to love me cyberlly
Those that have drained me mentally...
Those that have sucked the life frome me emotionally...
Those that have been selfish and just taken me for granted...physically
And those that have tried to fight me pyschically.....
Yet..couldnt quite capture me...spiritually
Hand in hand with my Creator they can all get thee behind me
Because finally...
I have set myself free

AND I HAVE LET GO...

From this day forward
The energy that makes the me soars toward...
The illuminating and eternal light

Happy

Complete

Tranquil

Serene

Peacefully....loving and enjoying me

I have let go

Have accepted the cosmic blueprint and plan
That lost little boy has burnt away....from his ashes has risen
A complete and total man
Like the Phoenix I have awakened and I rise
Clothed in the Creator's blessing
I can fully begin to heal
Once again I can start to feel

Love...freely

Live...truly

Be...wholly



Because...I Have Let Go

With this piece I felt an unfolding, I felt a release of the negative, and in the absence of that...peace. I feel grateful to have read these words this morning, poet.
