Best Let Go Poems


It's hard to Let Go
On Christmas day before he died,
I went home to visit my dad.
The house was full of family, 
our mood was quite somber and sad.

We drifted in and out the room,
where he lay dying in his bed.,
Each of us sharing memories,
saying the words that needed said.

Those...

Notice how the birds sing long after we listen.
We oft’ are engulfed with our trampoline thoughts.

With gossiping beaks, they chirp and they flap.
We mimic their tweets, in our minds, as we beat

out the negativity of tenacious tumbleweed and burrs.
When wings catch the air - either...

Premium Member - Let Go -
A glowing sunset
My summer dreams,
reached the point of parting tears
With silent song from heart
A sigh, let go of all the feeling
In the breeze:
A goodbye ... and one hello

Autumn is coming quietly
A sense of melancholy
The light is different
and the air sharper

Melody's cradle
Heaven clear light blue like...

Don'T Let Go
If you take my hand and don't let go
There's a side of life I want to show
You've suffered a little, a lot, know
But I also know you have a beautiful smile.
You have a loving family, they look your way
A God that knows just what to...

Let Go of the Rope
Let go of the rope my tethered friend
Your holding on to a futile end.

For if you fall what’s the consequence?
But if never tried life won’t make sense.

And if you try and don’t succeed 
You just may find its all you need.

See God is in the...

LET GO

You spend your time worrying
     about so many things
You take a little problem
     and give it giant wings

You let it cloud your senses
     leading happiness astray
You fret and whine relentlessly

Never Let Go
Heads turn, hearts burn
the song of the love bird
singing out loud
eyes sparkle, souls dance
two as one in perfect rhythm
another romance
 

I've been waiting
waiting so long
I've been searching
searching for a love that is strong
now that I found you
I'll never let go
now that I found us
you ought...

Never Let Go
Never let go 
Though the path is crooked, 
It is narrowed,
But mind not the thorns oh 
Brave and Noble seeker. 
Though you're a stranger, 
But you shall explore 
Well enough to restore 
Hope to the dying ones. 
Once with a courageous veil 
You'll end the...

When you having problems Let go, let God
When you seem (like) you can’t solve them

Letting go of nightmares and foreign dreams
Reach up

Learning To Let Go
When you hear your past calling
And you know better than to answer
But you answer them anyways
You can try to justify the who and the why
And yet you know that nothing good can come of this
It starts out with casual small talk
And almost always ends with...

Premium Member Loser, Let Go
I dangle from a frayed, silken cord of melancholy ...
Gaping beneath me, a chasm of hope and elation, aglow.
For most of a lifetime I've wrapped a cloak of worthlessness about me,
Using the flashes of talent to adorn the dark neglect like stars.

Oh, there is an...

Song: Let It Go Don'T Let Go
(verse 1)
Yo we'll let bygones be bygones though bygones bite on
blessed to have had the good times it’s life it all went wrong

though it hurts good memories
to the end you’ll always be 
my friends and never enemies 
mean the most I’ve ever meet

however far we...

Relinquish the doubts, the fears, 
That have nailed you to your cross....

Just Can'T Let Go
I’ve tried to forget you and what we’ve shared
I’ve tried not to believe that I really do care
But it makes my heart ache to tell myself no
There are too many reasons that I can’t let go

I remember the laughter and all of the fun that...
