A poem by Conner Budge …

Let Go

My heart was tied to the past. Unable to move on Unable to forget.

“Your heart will break, But you must let go” He said. “Won’t it hurt?” I asked.

“Yes, my child.”

“Then why, why must I let go. My heart is already breaking, I can’t handle the pain.”

“Let it break.

For when it breaks I can fix it. Mold it.

Make it better than it ever was before. I can take out the pieces that caused you pain And make it whole once more.

For when a heart breaks, you learn to grow. So my child, Simply, let go.”
