Letting Go

Beautiful Poetry about Life's meaning

 To the edge I walk and gape
Nightly now on whim
When perhaps will I find faith
I hope before it ends
Rising up to stand above
The faces with no name
Why should I then push or shove
For places with no claim

I feel I could move without a soul
But deceptive are my thoughts
At the edge of this big dark hole
There's no net in which to be caught

Safety is a random thing
You can not insure its valor
It flits about on broken wings
And changes every hour

What is right and what is wrong
These questions will be asked
But in the mind they'll not last long
Answers all are masked

You think you figured out a little piece
Well let me set you right
You get no closer, It's out of reach
But always lies in sight

Why then give a goal at all
Is that what life's about
To rise above just to fall
You'll always have your doubts

Choose your path but know
When you decide to go
It's an epitat you've handled
Since life began its flow

Really all you do in life
Is justify the end
Arriving there through strife
Just to do it once again

Can you let go of yourself
And get out of the way
That remains the locked up cell
You unlock everyday

I didn't even realize
I didn't even know
When I decided to end the fight
I decided to go
Living is a choice you know
And when you know this phrase
You'll understand that letting go
Is also a choice you made

 Reviews of "Letting Go"
Reviewed by Jerry Bolton (Reader)
Reviewed on October 4, 2009
Letting go has only one tiny problem. You can't come back and rethink the process which gave you the notion of "letting go." I do agree with you somewhat. Letting go is sometimes much more favorable than "hanging on."
