When You Let Go
You don’t need to scrub them clean from every corner of your mind—
moving on isn’t about erasing what was there.
It’s about tending the ground where hurt once grew,
slowly lifting the heavy baggage from your heart and soul with care.
You’ll still call up the love you shared, the moments you held dear—
but now they’ll come like rain on dry earth, not thorns that tear.
No deep wounds opening wide, no bitter hate to burn;
just memories passing through your thoughts, a quiet turn.
They won’t linger to twist your days or weigh your spirit down—
they’ll drift as soft as dust motes in a sunlit room.
And if the bridge to full release feels far, or steep, or brown with wear,
take all the time you need to cross it—there’s no rush, no doom..
Forgetting was never meant to be the way to make it through;
healing, whole and true—that’s what sets your heart anew..🌘✨01202026 ©LanZhan
