let it go

panic over takes me. . .


something i love being snatched from my grasp.


pain.


gasping for air.



let it go, my dear


i can’t.


let it go, my love


you mustn’t ask this of me



fear.


trembling.


gasping.


pain.



let it go, my child


i’m afraid to let go


let it go, darling


how can i?



my treasure.


i can’t.


i love it so much.


Why must i??



let it go, my dear


my will is breaking


let it go, my love


it’s so hard to let go. . .



let it go, my child


i’m tying though it hurts


let it go, my darling


with a breath it’s gone

ask me to explain this. . . and I can't. I only know that if you been here you know exactly what I mean. and if you haven't been here yet, hang on to your hat, it's coming. . .

Very well Written, and very heartfelt.

well I don't have any profound words... just this. I know what you're talking about. Nothing is ever right until you let go, even though it feels like life itself will be surely be gone when you open your eyes.
