Let Go
4-21-11
Inspiration;
To give more than you receive,
And put what you’re given to good use.
Creativity;
A portal to a world
Of imagination.
You
Make me wonder all
Day long;
What is living?
Is it simply enough
To be alive?
Or is there
Something, more?
I wait for you to come,
For you to show me the way,
For you to love me,
Inspire me to do the same.
Though inspired,
What do I do now?
Use the power for
Good or for Evil?
Too many questions,
I need more answers.
Inspiration is only the
Humble doorway into a palace.
A grandeur building
Made of my own mind.
Is only the beginning.
There’s more to find.
No need to rhyme,
No need to scheme.
Meter is for those
Who cannot dream.
Break from the illusion
Of conformity.
We are all made to be different.
Though some more than others.
We strive to be our own,
Inspired to live a life;
That is what makes us so afraid
Of death.
Be not afraid,
Do not fret.
Love is here,
To make you forget.
Not the good but rather the bad,
Sticks to our minds and seems
To justify a wall we put up
Brick by red brick; stone by heavy stone
Inspiration is only the beginning.
It doesn’t show the way,
Only the door from
Which you wait.
But I say, ‘Go’,
Do not hesitate.
Do not let you heart stay heavy,
Or the water flood the gate.
Open it all, let it burst free.
Inspiration can lead to wonders
In this world built by you and me.
We can all be free.
Free, free, free.
Echoes in the dark.
Echoes in the light.
Free, free, free.
To be free we must
Let ourselves be;
Must let ourselves flow
In order to know,
That inspiration isn’t the guide,
But merely a string.
At the end is a
Kite on the wind.
You are the kite.
Seemingly supported
By nothing,
Flapping around helplessly.
Now you are the wind
That supports a kite.
Giving inspiration for
The fabric to fly.
Do not wait,
Nor hesitate.
For when the string’s cut,
It is just in time.
You lead your own life
On the breath of the wind.
Letting life flow
Inspired to do the same; I let go.
Inspiration will only go
As far as you let it.
So let it go.
Just let it flow.
If not now,
Then when will you let go?
If not now,
Then when will you be free?
