Sometimes you need to go into the woods,
Fall back from civilization and walk amongst trees.
Climb over rocks and trudge through rivers
Simply to let the mind be at peace.
True inspiration comes once you've let go of what you've had.
Without life's clutter and chaos overwhelming the soul,
You begin to see the world in a different light.
What once was gray, dark and sullen becomes beautiful once again.
The heart, now beating for what once was lost,
The mind, only focusing on what now can be.
Both believing in the powers of love and loss,
Together learning how to Let it Be.
