Little by little
I am
learning
to
let
go
I am learning to let go
Of rehearsed questions and unanswered responses
Of missed opportunities
Expectations and disappointments
Of words not said, feelings not felt, mistakes not rectified
I am learning to free myself from perfection and guilt
Allowing myself to marvel at the chaos of life
And continue to grow amidst the wreckage
I am learning to let go of people
Watching them walk away with smiles and understanding
Accepting that it wasn't our time
And if not in the future
We will meet again in another lifetime
I am learning to let go
Slowly
I am learning to let go
And in letting go
I am learning to hold tighter
Hold faster
Hold fiercer
To all that should never be let go
