Learning to Let Go by ~lordlossxz:iconlordlossxz:



We each live in our own little worlds
The worlds we create to surround us
With influence from the ones we invite
And welcome in to join us

So our worlds are no longer our own
But a world shared with another
And with the other, power is shared
A power that can rip and sunder

And our world feels secure
With a mutual sharing
For the one who you share with
Is someone special and caring

When from out of the blue
Everything is changed
Blind sided
Your world's been rearranged

Shattered apart
Can't find all of the pieces
For she took some with her
And my heart siezes

I'm lost in this new world
A world that isn't whole
A world full of pain
A world that is cold

My warmth is all gone
Away with my heart
I try to rebuild
But where do I start?

What do you do to fix a shattered world?
How do you even begin?
What do you use to mend this heart
When the heart wasn't ready for the end?

The easiest way is also the hardest
Because first, you have to let go
Stop holding on and let yourself fall
Only then will you truly know

The world can be rebuilt
The task is easy, you'll see
Just open your eyes
And things will come to be

Relinquish your hold
Give over control
Fate has a plan
But you need to let go

Everything will start anew
And fall into it's proper place
When you take that leap and let yourself fall
Into a better place

Life has this funny way
Of working itself out
As long as you let it all
Follow its path without doubt

Then everything will return
To the way it was meant to be

This is about finally learning to just let go
its the hardest thing to do
but sometimes it must be done
in the end, life will work itself out exactly the way its supposed to

I like this piece, the one thing I would say is that the repetition of "world" makes the rhythm drag a little.
But the message is really clear, and I like how it kinda turns and ends up hopeful and optimistic :)

Can we pretend I'm amazing? Instead of what we both know...

Close your eyes, for your eyes will only tell the truth, and the truth isn't what you want to see. In the dark it is easy to pretend, that the truth is what it ought to be <333

Yah. I'm trying to be optimistic right now or I'm gonna lose it, lol
Too much is going on and I have to remain hopeful about this one thing or I'll go insane, lol

Are my screams loud enough? Can you hear me now? Or should I paint it with red on the bathroom floor?
