LET IT GO?
Some judge my feelings and easily say:
Why don't you stop living in the past?
How does one tell when yesterday stops
And tomorrow is here at last?
It seems so very strange to me
That some say, "Let it go!"
How do you let go of something
That lives in the depths of your soul?
And if I could, would I want to?
Because my past is a part of me,
How could I separate the suffering
From the precious memories?
If I dismissed a time in my life
I would lose many blessings too.
It would change the person that I am
So I would stand too much to lose.
A wise man told me yesterday
To become friends with my past.
I think that could be the answer
For me to have freedom at last.
