Be Still My Heart

so I leave it in fates worn trembling hands
let go my heart so still it stands
let go my desire buried deep
dry my eyes no more tears to weep
let go the questions with no answers
let go the disappointment that grows like cancer
close my eyes clear my head
let go the things left unsaid
know not mind the world I see
be not who I am yet who I want to be
