A Kind Of Letting Go

Vice like grip unseen yet tight Pressure building through the night It bends the light distorts the sound A silent storm where pain is crowned My temples pulse in steady aches Like thunder’s growl before it breaks Yet in its grip a lesson found My mind is strong though pain is bound Then comes relief in a soft embrace A quiet calm with a slower pace Verde eases weight and strain A gentle hand on tethered pain The mind exhales, the body sighs Like golden light in smoky skies A softened world in a peaceful glow Letting my weary spirit flow
