Letting Go

Sinking into the mystery
Watching it all like a traveler

I’ve given up
On feeling bad
Life is too short
For pain the mind creates

My ego swells when problems arise
I turn inward
Close my eyes
Let go of your hand
All I see are my faults
Shortcomings
Dispair
I imagine deep holes to fall into

But I’ve learned
I’m horribly
Allergic to fear
It makes me break out
It makes me ugly
Fat
Frozen
And sick
And delusional

Life must always be joyful
The sun never cries
What’s done is done
And what will be
Will be amazing
Cuz it always is
We’ll get through it together
Because we’re all in this ocean
We don’t have time to stall
Swim the currents without fear
