Letting Go

It is the hardest lesson I ever had to learn. Emptying myself to breathe my own air, I went through life with nothing to spare. My place had been set and was hard to earn. In my heart it was for you I yearn. Times were rough and never fair. All along only I came to really care. In my soul this began a fire to burn. You let me down, Broke my heart, Made me frown, Ripped me apart, Shattered into a million zillion pieces, I’m letting go of my lifetime of leases. © Copyright: Ann Rich 2006
