Letting Go.

I have tried to hold on
To things,
To moments,
To memories,
To sunrises, sunsets,
To lunar phases,
To ocean waves,
To children,
To parents,
To family
To friends,
To a single day,
To my life,
To my plans and schedules,
To everything,
To anything,
With the tightest grip,
I tried to hold on,
But couldn't.
They simply slipped away,
To my lose.

So I learned
To let go,
To let everything,
And everyone,
Be.
And
I find myself
Here and now
With them.

And I learned
To smile
And laugh,
And cry too,
With everything
And anything
That freely graces
My moments
And my life.

Letting go,
I have become rich.
I have become
Me.
