Letting Go

Are you still recalling that dispute You had long ago with a loved one? It's time unkind words were rendered mute, Let go of the reins, and let them run What torment petty quarrels can dispense! We say things, then later wonder why, Hurtful words that never made much sense - Bind them to swift wings and let them fly Time is not what heals our broken hearts, Or brings comfort to a shattered soul; Gently gather all the broken parts - Mend them with Love's threads to make them whole Focus on the things that made you smile, Words and deeds that made happiness flow; When sad memories taunt you with their guile, Raise the window wide and bid them go!
