[QUOTE="Bama_Girl, post: 71754516, member: 402013"] hi all. I'm new here. I've enjoyed reading some of ya'lls poems. I don't write often, only when something has hit me deeply and I can't manage to get my feelings out any other way. I wrote this while I was helping my daughter move out of her apartment after a break up with her boyfriend. She was in her room with the door shut and I could hear her sobbing. Letting go It's hard to let go when you've held on with all your might With balled fists and clinched teeth you've tried so hard to win this fight Your hands hurt from the pressure of holding on way too long And you can't understand how and why things went so wrong All you can do is watch everything fall apart On the ground all around, broken pieces of your trusting heart Hopeless and helpless you know you've lost all control Now empty and searching for something to heal your soul When you finally give in to the truth of the mess you've made It's then that a voice gently calls you up from the grave Your savior is waiting just reach out and take His hand Rise up on your feet even if you can't bear to stand Take your first step as you lean on His loving arm Trust that He loves you and won't lead you into harm His ways are perfect, His love is so very pure. Others will fail but in Him you will be secure So walk hand in hand with the One who is always true Because your dreams can't compare to what He has planned for you [/QUOTE]
