Letting Go

it’s easy to imagine that you’re floating
when you are standing so far out there
that your feet don’t touch the ground
it’s easy to imagine the big leather armchair
pig tails and little-girl white tights
wrinkling at the ankles
swinging toes that don’t even graze the carpet
it’s easy to disappear
when everything gets so hard and cold
and you feel like
the world is going to swallow you whole
or maybe it’s a wish
but the floorboards never
wrapped you in their embrace, pulling you in
so it will have to do
to dream of September sky
legs pumping, take me higher
legs and shoes against the bluest blues
pretending that if you let go you will fly away
but you never knew
you never felt safe enough at the lip of ascent
to release
so this is where I spend my time
when my mind is trying to convince me of you
because I still believe that if I let go
I’ll pour into the sky and never fall again

| That is a very good poem. The way you put it made it mysterious in a way to me. Interesting. I love it. You have talent. |
