To Let GO

Breaking ties, breaking ropes,

Breaking the anchor to the world,

Breaking that which holds

Me to mine and mine to all,

Each and every rope,

Each tie, each knot

Each different, each same,

Always strengthening eternally.

But to cut them all swift,

Of sound mind

With sound dread,

None can see the end.

To fly free

To lose that view

To lose that constant

To lose that love

What can be done?

Who would cut

The ties that make

The anchor to the world.

The aimless air,

The aimless distance, to all that see,

Gone forever to the eternal,

The nothing that constitutes all.

But to what could it be

To take the end away,

To disappear across

The world eternal.

What sights can be seen,

What marvels lay beyond,

What mysteries, what curiosities,

What exists beyond horizons?

Disaster, terror, destruction,

Plague, famine, poverty,

War, darkness, death,

Is that what lies beyond?

Or is there something different?

Something of which

None can compare

The glory and holy of it.

This thing, this mystery,

Greatness or darkness,

Will remain unresolved

Unless one has the courage

To Let Go
