The Song of Let Go



Image by Fellapanik

PLEASE PLAY:

I love you
and
love you
and
love you

Distant like Timbuktu
Tree trunk
up-rooted
by the clouds
pillow soft hands
stretched down
to pull
us apart
You are the earth
I am the tree
no rivers
no flowers
no lake
no ocean
no leaves
no stretch
into the sky

Why would I?

Sun beaming
I am burning
You are still
You will remain

God sees
the pain
and takes me
home.

William Ortiz

  1. My first effort is a book of poetry. Twelve words on the invisible man. I'd want to have it posted. Can you show me the way?
