Letting Go

The practice of letting go
Leads to letting go
Of all things -
Let go now -
It’s all going to go, anyhow,
So let it go.

If you continue letting go,
Your mask will fall,
Revealing the original face in all,
Just remove your disguise,
It only hides the beauty inside
So let it go.

When you’ve found the secret -
Let it go -
With nowhere left to roam,
When all doubts resolve
In I don’t know,
Carry on,
Let it go.

When the found is choiceless being- 
Let it go -
As metal and magnet unite as one
And you a carefree child become,
When all such wonders have been and gone,
Just carry on,
Let it go.
