Let Go (Even When You Can't)A Poem by Blake Q Hatfield
Sever ties and let go
Sometimes it's the only way To make things better The wounds will remain open and tender Until the mind can make amends and open its eyes To see the truth is only secondary to believing Suppression will only cause a downfall infection Of living in illusion and fabricated stories Holding on to what's already done, never true Will leave you lost in thought Always wondering, always hoping for something An answer, explanation, another chance To go back to the moment where it worked Or erase it all from the mind No matter how much you hide Your feeling and emotions will be chaos In the wake of deep wounded heart beats No glass full and tall enough No plate heavy or big enough Nothing soothes scars covered in honest tears When you still live in the loop of your decay Sever ties and let go No matter how sweet and vital things may have been This season that fruit is sour poison Break and let the pain flow in Believe what is true, feel it's validity To help your mind wake and open its eyes So you can walk on to a better day © 2011 Blake Q Hatfield |
