The old parts of you
The parts that you have outgrown
The parts that have failed you
Let them go.
The parts that have hurt you
The parts that you used to be
The pain that you used to own
Let it die.
The parts you hold onto
even now
The parts that are leaving you
as I write
Let them go.
The fear you are afraid to live without
The lies you tell yourself
The little you who is ready to pass
Let them die.
The process you struggled with for years
The old habits you’re changing
The “I’m sorrys” you’ve never received
Let them go.
The mother you never had
The father you never knew
The parents who were never there for you
Let them go.
The unanswered questions
The relationships with no closure
The regrets, the mistakes, the injustice
Let it go.
Your life is waiting for you
Your unimagined self is waiting for you
Your answers are waiting for you
to let them go
to let it be
to bravely step into the light
into the Now
onto the path that you are ready to walk
and learn what it means to truly
rest in peace.
