Letting go.
Is scary.
What if there is nothing more?
What if letting go is wrong?
Would that mean
that nothing of love was ever real?
I am letting go.
Hard thing to do in this world.
Where we are caught
inbetween our ears.
Inside the waters of our fear..
I am letting go.
Of you my friend.
My lover of long.
Of ancient times.
I am letting go.
Of another one.
Who came and left,
showed me next step.
I am letting go
Of so much.
Naked I stand before you.
Creator of worlds.
I face the horizons
in the palm of your hand.
I don't know
where I am going
But I know who I am.
I know what you tell me
it is true.
I find you everyday
and let you come near.
Naked I stand before you.
Yes, I am scared.
But I have run out of exuse.
There is only one path to go,
one path to choose
Living each day
without guarantee.
I have trained for this
for a very long while.
Ever since you put me
here in this world of time.

Yes. I send a blessing, though I think your own courage is probably blessing enough. The lines “I don't know where I'm going, but I know who I am,” gave me chills. It seems to me that to have this courage, this understanding; the result of your choice may be difficult, but it will always be clear. A lovely, brave poem.
Thank you friend..
Transition is a challenge..”The result of your choice may be difficult, but it will always be clear”
So true..
Yes, letting go has probably got to be one of the most difficult challenges in human existence; but being willing to rise to that challenge is an indication of your strength and your acceptance of it… such as what was said there at the end “I have trained for this for a very long while. Ever since you put me here in this world of time.” It speaks to your belief in yourself and your maker, which is quite an admirable - and 'grown up' - quality! I commend you.
I recently went through quite a traumatic exercise of letting go and even now I am still pulling of the last strings of the action. But I admit to feeling the restrictions go, once and for all, and finally feeling as if my freedom is mine and is here with me.
Good luck to you! Love Sherri
Dear Sol,
I knew every word you wrote … every feeling your felt … as if they were my own. Love is always real … even when it wasn't.
Blessings
Sol,
Letting go is never easy.
I have been there myself.
Sometimes it is fear of what's next-
being comfortable, that keeps us bound.
Spread your wings now and explore…
Change is necessary… it causes us to grow.
You will find the one for you.
Hugs!

Thank you all for your feedback..I feel peace…Even though there are waves…I have faith..Lots of love…
Dear Sol,
It's all about the big crack that lets the light in. It's often what we are scared of most, and it takes a lot of courage to turn one's face towards the light. I take my hat off to you!
Love,

Had an urge here..well D..I have been reflecting over the entire situation today, and the nice thing is, love still remains..Free and flowing..I think being where I am in life spiritually, challenges me to develop the strength and faith to be able to let go, no matter how much some part of me wants to hold on…..It is like letting go of attachment, so that truth can appear again..Truth is simply what works..On a day to day basis..
Hi Sol. I was just thinking about what you said there, and as I mentioned your poem reminded me about an experience that I had which was so SO similar, and where I also chose to let go [since the person is not free presently].
The recollection lay in the fact that although my 'connection' with this person was incredibly strong, what it inspired me to do was to raise my own expectations of myself somehow. I don't know if this makes sense…
I felt that if we had such a spiritual connection, there must be something bigger going on here, than me and my otherwise important 'need' to have them around all of the time. Was pretty strange.
But I did feel like I had to trust in the Universe to make the time we would share together just right, and the time we were apart right as well… like some kind of growing up period.
I still feel the person with me, by the way, and they often 'respond' when I feel a strong emotion towards them, however I still don't want to go against nature with this relationship since I feel it is higher and deeper and shouldn't be contaminated by greed and impatience… the typical human reaction to 'ownership' of someone.
If he will be with me, then he will be. I can let him go and still expect the best. Quite interesting…
Way too cool Sherri..
This poem is about letting go of the past , just so that I can mature, spiritually, emotionally and physically…I feel acceptance for the movements we need to go through, even though the situation in our family is a bit painful , as not everybody is just as happy with growth as I am…
I resonate with what you write here.It is amazing what great potential we humans have, and I think we have the same understanding..It is wise to approach the light of this type of love in a patient manner, it is way too intense to be able to hold without proper training..It will only reveal the shadows too brutally..So yes, we get it in just the right dosage.. First selflove..Otherwise we will blow a fuse, hehe..
I remember once, when I was eighteen, I met a man of love, and he told me that the heart was just like a crystal, but that when impure it would not reflect the light of love that breathes through it..So it needs cleansing..Of all the grief that we tend to hang on to.Now, so many years after, his words stay with me, allready back then I was given my mission..
The way life is, it is easy to stay in status quo on a spritiual level, holding on to old pains..The spiritual man and woman cannot do that..It is unbearable..
With every movement I feel more love, but I am a h… of a cleaner..
