Just Let Go

Our life lived in fear how we hate the unknown,
 As we struggle to thrive and keep all that we own.
 Our status, our wealth, our land and our gold,
 Our family and friends, we believe we control.
 Then we grow and we learn,
 That things change that things turn.
 Walls of stone become dust,
 Then we realize we must.
 Never fear the unknown,
 For that fear is our own. 
 Then we know and it seems,
 Permanence is the dream. 
 Let it go let it be,
 Fear no more you’ll be free.
