Surrender to Serenity
A Poem

Hold on, I’m told
Hold on for dear life
Hold on to the breaths, pain, memories
Hold on to your hope, comfort, truth
Hold on to loss, faith, familiarities
Too much, I responded
Too much to hold
Too much truth, too much pain
Too much to bear, too much weight
Too much fear, too much shame
Listen for the answers
I waited, I waited
So long, my breath is taken
This time a whisper
so surrender
Surrender the pain
Surrender the past
Surrender the comfort
Surrender to serenity
