I’m always afraid to lose
Whatever it is I choose.
The confidence I’ve built
And the swords at my hilt.
The zest for life, to live.
Societies I used to fit.
Ideas I always thought about
That were lost in the clouds
I’m afraid to lose my world
The homes I once curled.
Smiles I thought would stay
And hearts that I gave away.
Burning flames of spirit
And gentleness herein
Laughs that reach my eyes
And the tears I left behind
But I now know it’s better
To lose it when it gets heavier
You’ll realize a breakthrough
When it stops hurting you
To snip away all these fears
With your pair of pretty shears
And welcome all that’s new
In what’s to come in lieu
Of what and where you go
And let life happen and flow
Let its wind blow you away
No matter where it lands in May
Because if hang on to things as so
Your seeds may never grow
As they’ll stay in the winter snow
When you don’t learn to let things go
