Letting Go

The weight of yesteryears, a heavy chain,

Memories etched with sorrow, joy, and pain.

Yet every dawn whispers, soft and true,

The past is a lesson, not a life to rue.

Mistakes are shadows that fade with light,

No need to carry them into the night.

They shaped us, taught us, then drifted away,

Clearing the path for a brighter day.

Grief and regret, they linger near,

Feeding the whispers of doubt and fear.

But the heart is resilient, it knows the art,

Of finding renewal, of making a start.

Let go of the anger, release the sting,

Hear the song of freedom your spirit can sing.

The present is here, alive, and vast,

A canvas untainted by what has passed.

Step forward, unburdened, with head held high,

Chase the dreams that once kissed the sky.

For life is a river, forever it flows,

And only by letting go, the soul truly grows.
