Let It Go
Adrienne Shamszad ©2023

When the storm washed all the roads away
Our plans were buried in the graveyard of yesterday
I tried to carry the water in my fists, I gripped with all my might
But the night said

Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go

When the sun rose and the light was falling all around
My hands were empty so I placed them open on the ground
I grew quiet and listened to the hum of the sea
Calling

Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go, let it go, let it go

I, I wait in the water
I, I wait in the water
I listen to the rhythm of the river
I go with the flow of the river
Home to the ocean
Home to the ocean
Home to the ocean,
The ocean of Love
