Does your heart muscle remember
How it let go

Do you recollect
Those times you’ve freely relinquished
Or not wanting to release, did as much?

Account here your every sinew’s wisdom
Every neuron’s path

There is more of this road to trod
Hellish and unrelenting 
Only hope will walk it

And I see footprints 
But are they my own, making headway

Falling back 
Lost? 
I welcome your words

Teach my ears, my eyes, my fingers, my heart
How to let go
