giving up is something we've all been through,
but letting go is a different entity.
giving up is letting the sorrow consume you,
drowning you so deep you've lost your identity.
it is the ache you feel in the waking hours of night.
the indescribably invisible loss that gnaws you,
like a vacuum grasping all the light,
despite your efforts, despite your might.
it is feeling the life leave your soul,
bits and pieces licked up in a flame,
until you are no longer whole,
until you are no longer the same.
letting go is like a butterfly in a breeze,
guilt rushing out like curing a disease.
like a waterfall cascading from the highest peak
the bliss that comes with is truly unique.
it is not a quick fix that disables temporarily.
it comes with heartbreak, it comes with sorrow.
but it is worth it all- it's like a personalized therapy
and the you from the future will thank you tomorrow
it is not quick, but it brings forgiveness
it brings love and compassion
and you will be the witness.
and finally, finally, you'll find satisfaction.
