At the time of healing
grief leaks out the corners,
spills down, becomes a river
like to wash you right away
Let it go, let it go -
this is something more ancient
than all of your lifetime,
more elemental
than every regret you have borne
Let it go - it wants to flow away,
wants to be a cleansing,
wants you to know
that you have never been a tool of sorrow -
all those stories
are washed clean with forgiveness
and you are free.
