Letting go, letting be…

I’ve let go of countless people

Places

Things

…Dreams

But when will something I desperately want want to hold back onto me?

I don’t want to be in a continual process

Of letting go, letting be

I want someone to fight for me!

I want my enraptured dreams to become my reality.

I want destiny to let me fly, high on an eagle’s wings

Not crash me down, foolishly, into stormy seas

I don’t want to contain or conceal myself

Because the world around me can’t understand me, or see

When will something stick?

What will be my niche?

When will all this make sense?

I don’t want to be in a continual process

Of letting go, letting be

I want someone to yearn, to console, and to hold me.
