Holding on meets letting go

sometimes
you need to let go
of the things that make you
hold on

because holding on
sometimes means letting go
to free yourself
of all you think you know

knowing isn’t always better
and seeing doesn’t always clear things up
burning can be though
but that doens’t mean you have to stop

choose the things that make you embrace
live like you’re fearless
because holding yourself down
doesn’t reach blissfulness ###

and you are truely blessed
with all you have to offer
even when you don’t believe

appearance is overrated
perfect doesn’t excist
so take control
and get back on all you have missed
