Let Them Go
Problems sail along the wind,
Maybe because we have sinned,
Maybe because life is hard
Many people feel shaken and jarred,
But we must let our hardships go,
On the sea, we must continue to row.
Not just problems, people too,
Don’t wait for more than one clue,
When people continue to treat you bad,
When they forever keep you sad,
Your energy is all they consume,
Don’t stay locked in a tomb.
Life is all about getting by,
All that we can ever do is try,
Run through the hurt, the pain,
Your brain is there for you to train,
Remember that you are never alone,
And everyone has skills to hone.
