such is life

Post by sweetwater » June 15th, 2009, 11:30 am

such is life ...

the turns and narrows
misgivings
and laments

letting go
of the things
that are intended
to hurt us

and moving on
to something better

re-connecting on
different grounds
in a different time
frame

such is life ...

the insults enough
are a gathering
of fossils
laying in wait
that have died

and to know when
it is time
to let go

and to leave
what isn't yours
alone to itself

to forgive
what can be forgiven
and to forget
what can be
forgotten

such is life ...

how it doesn't
always work out
as planned
