Really live
Is to be willing
To lose it all
The people you love
The things you love
Anything dear to you
To live in this world
Is to acknowledge
A terrifying lack of control
Over what comes into our lives
What goes from our lives
Lives
often lived
With
a tight gripOn what is cherished
An exhausting grip
That gives a sense of control
But
this grip
Doesn’t
actuallyProtect
No
grip is that strong
Leaving
us to wonder
Is living in fear
Living
Or is it just
Existing
Would
we live better
If
we were less afraidOf losing
Maybe
it’s OK
To
loosen the gripAnd let life be what it is
Maybe
it’s OK
To
let goAnd live
