The chains that bind me

the years of clutter sum total
feel much like a noose around my neck
the memories both good and bad
exhausting in their tonnage

trinkets on shelves
reminders in drawers
paramount to the anchor
out to hold me back

the sea beckons all around me
but i’m fettered in a stalemate
hovering when i should be sailing

how i envy the minimalist
who has mastered the art
of letting go ~
