Letting Go and Learning to Fly

Gripping tight to the point of pain;
Gripping tight to the point of exhaustion;
Gripping tight to the point of sorrow for things lost, and things never found;
Gripping tight to the point my soul empties because I simply can’t refill the cup;
Gripping tight until I have lost my sense of self, and was so friggin afraid to let go;
Gripping tight until I found the strength to question who I am, and why am I afraid;
Gripping tight until I remember I am worth more than this rope I am holding onto for dear life;
Gripping tight until one day I couldn’t stand it any longer and let go to ponder my destiny without care;
Gripping no longer to a rope that was strangling my soul, and found something truly amazing….
