Let Go

(hummmm) letting the quiet in I see you smiling at her like you

used to smile at me

jealousy creeps in quiet,

wraps around my chest

scared you'll leave when the nights get too heavy

so I push you away first,

make it messy

I'm learning how

to let go

of the fear that holds me close

finding peace in the letting healing

slow

before the dawn

self sabotage tastes sweet like the smoke in my lungs

abandonment echoes in the way I run

but I'm breathing deeper now,

releasing the hold

turning wounds into wisdom,

stories retold

I'm learning how

to let go

of the fear that holds me close

finding peace in the letting

healing slow before the dawn

in the dark of my room I cried it out

then the light crept in,

soft and devout (ahhhh)

letting go

finding peace (hummmm)
