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.
