Let Go

Let Go

We all have our
secrets
in the shadows
of our souls.
Secrets that flay us;
keep us
awake in the dark,
probing as deep into the pain
as your tongue worries at
the tooth’s
old empty abode.

Our secrets show as daytime
faces of fear;
suspicion, envy,
guilty haunting inside.

Learn to let go
focus on the
new;
dream of angel wings and
ignore the tickling of
the devil’s feather.

Leave behind
your darkest hour and
go forward into freedom.
Yearn toward the time
when your life
takes wings,
the time
when men become gods.
