Waking up every day of my life, pushing the pain way down low. Trying to chip out the tiniest of smiles, just enough so it will show.
Feeling hopeless, future now gone, missing the things that give joy.
Wishing that I, could find this great man, that grew from inside of this boy.
The sadness inside me and loss that I felt, jabbing and stabbing my heart.
Hoping each day, that I die in some way, that will reset all life from the start.
Blinded from seeing the tools all around, ones that could help me along.
Digging myself out of messes I made, required the need to be strong.
Years have flown by, all those feelings now gone, no longer do I wish to be dead.
The pain and struggles that were deep inside me, have quit being stuck in my head.
Now it's ideas and people I love, to think about when I'm awake.
Since I've let go of the hurt left inside, the rest of this life is just cake.

Learning to let go is one of the hardest but greatest lessons to be learned. It frees the soul, lightens the load and brings a permanent smile of joy. A lovely write.
A very positive write of finally allowing themselves to be off the demons and start enjoying life, nicely written
How did you let go, Steve?
Letting go is continuous, introspection daily is necessary. Allow it to flow.
Thanks a million!
