Letting Go

Mother says you don’t have to hold on so tight Because you are scared or frightened That any opportunity we may have had Is now forever gone and you’ll sing your forlorn songs When in reality You are now beautiful Your soul cascades into the night sky Mother says be brave Pave a way for a new day Let it all come crashing down Let the tears open up those gates Where you will be free Letting go
