Listening and letting go
We grip tighter
Yet control slips.
Stuck-ness pervades
Frustration builds
Pits form.
Something’s
Not working.
Letting go
An obvious solve
Eludes.
The perception
Of impending free fall
Too much.
But perhaps
It’s the freedom
We need.
After a suffocatingly-long
Too-tight attachment
To the way
Things are supposed to be.
Perhaps
It’s the only way to find
What’s next.
How do we know
To let go?
By trusting.
How do we find trust?
By listening
And letting go.
