I was holding onto you
like a tree holding it’s leaves.
at first, it seemed to work,
but then, there was this autumn breeze,
I had to let go of you, let go of the leaves.
but it’s okay, it’s part of the journey,
there’s sun after rain, smiles after pain.
my leaves are now gone
and I’m waiting for snow.
and as we all know;
new beginnings only come from letting go.
