Letting go of a dream, even one deferred.

Letting go of the hopes, wishes and aspirations for your presence here in my life.

Letting go of the unspent moments of tomorrows yet to be.

***

Releasing the idea of you on the wind, (fly and be free).

Releasing the thoughts of what I wanted so desperately to be (go, now).

Releasing the pain of the loneliness that I dreamt only you could cure (being my own cure).

***

Moving forward with my life (let’s roll).

Moving into the next moment with detachment (being present with the now).

Moving through my loneliness as only I can, with as much grace as I can muster (with flowers in my hair).

***

There is still a place for you in my heart (it is filled with love).

There is still a place for you by my side (though it is empty not).

There is still a silence when I ask for you to speak (though sometimes I believe I hear you whisper)

***

Yes, I know you are still there (why wouldn’t you be?)

Yes, I know that if it is meant to be, it will  (there is no need to push).

Yes, I am learning to love myself in new and more expansive ways (as only I can).

***

Know that I am still here (why wouldn’t I be?)

Know that I still foresee your arrival at my door (maybe it’s for another lifetime).

Know that I am going to thrive, even without you here (as I hope you are also).

***

Letting you go means I am rolling onwards (no longer waiting).

Letting you go means I am breathing on my own (no longer holding my breath).

Letting you go means I’m expanding further into my own, on my own (as I hope you are also).

***

Embrace your new found freedom (as I am).

Embrace the Divinity of who you are,  right now (as I do the same)

Embrace the peace that is your truth (as I learn that,  too).

***

Knock when you are ready (I will answer).

Namaste.
