letting go

i ask the wind to help me let go
of all the hurt
and past anger,
of all the sadness
and other emotions
that hang in this place
like heavy curtains.

i ask the wind to help me let go
and let me see
things as they are now
with clear eyes.

i ask the wind to help me let go
to judge unimpeded
by memories
and let pass what needs to pass.

i ask the wind to help me let go.

today i will see if it has answered.
