When Colors Let Go

A Poem

By KomalPublished 2 years ago β€’ 1 min read

The hand tilted the glass, and a cascade of shimmering colors spilled into the air, each fragment a memory reborn. A quiet voice drifted through the scene…

Voice in the Light:

"Careful now. Each piece has a story."

Hand:

"And every story has its end. Do we not let go, to make room for more?"

The colors danced, twisting and shifting as if alive. A spark of teal spoke, catching the hand's attention.

Teal Fragment:

"Why must we fall, when we once fit so perfectly?"

Hand:

"Not everything we hold is meant to stay. Sometimes, beauty lies in the letting go."

Another fragment, a sliver of violet, sighed as it spun in the light.

Violet Fragment:

"Then will we be forgotten?"

Hand:

"No, little one. In freedom, you find new purpose. Each of you will become something greater, together a mosaic in the wind."

A golden fragment laughed, swirling around the others.

Golden Fragment:

"Then let us go joyfully! Who knows where the breeze may take us?"

The hand smiled, watching as the pieces began to scatter, coloring the air around them.

Hand:

"So dance, my memories, as you drift. Carry a piece of me wherever you fall."

The colors shimmered and flowed, each one a fleeting echo of a moment once held close, now released to the world.

And as they drifted on, a quiet understanding lingered, between the hand and the light-filled fragments:

Sometimes, to lose is to let live.
