letting go

unsettled feelings
dwelt within me for sometime
twisted curls of air
churning inside my guts
tormenting memories
lodged in my mind

I want to let go
God knows how much
I am begging the spirit
unburden me!

Ahh.. but its useless
my sttrength is unmatched
by the clutch of the past
thriving inside my heart..

if only...
death would come
rest my weary mind

if only...

yes, it does seem in the letting go phyllis,
in the 'dying to' that we can finally Know the
deepest of rest inside what it means to be
human

it's always lovely to read from you

OH my Word - Have I really written "I don't no"? I have just sent my self into the dunces corner, as I KNOW that is such a pathetic error.

A thousand pardons, dear lady...
