I Can Let Go
29 July, 2002
Author: Shan
Your poem made sense, and so I did cry
But this time, didn't stop to think why.
Although I've been deserted by my own blood
and everywhere I turn, my life takes a thud,
I know it could one day be good
If I only listen to my heart like I know I should.
You're right about the biggest mistake a person could make
being the constant fear of making a mistake
But it's so hard to lean on myself like you say
When I'm just not sure, I'll make it though the day
Sometimes I wonder if I really am in control,
cuz it feels as though the fears gut my soul.
If I do finally let go, will everything be ok?
Will the fear of life finally go away?
I try so hard to be the person I dream of,
A person full of happiness, desire and love.
But at the same time, my life is not mine
Controled by some other force of time.
I wish I could lean on myself like you,
To help me with tough times to get through
I know that one day, I will succeed
And bloom as a person instead of being this enclosed seed.
I will be ok, just as long as I try
Til then I put my words in poems to get by
Thank you for reading and responding back,
For you have set my mind on a different track.
