Letting Go

By Shivani Jignesh Shah (Gala)

Let go the things that hurt and hold,

Only then will peace and happiness unfold.

Let go the things we cannot change,

Because that’s life- mysterious and strange.

Rumourmongers in your life’s journey you may find,

The thoughts of whom will disturb and capture your mind.

But there are good and positive people on earth

Who really love you and value your worth.

So let go all the negativity from your mind,

Only then solace and calmness you will find.

Let go the greed, the jealously and bitterness;

Which fills you with so much of heaviness.

Let go the thought of ‘ what others will think’,

For it will make your true self shrink.

Let go the things that clip your wings,

For you are born to soar and sing.

Let go the past which is forever gone,

For it drains your energy and makes you worn. 

Here and now is what you have in your hand,

Live it to the fullest because the moment is grand.
