trying not to
hang on so tightly
this i know;
i need
i need
to set them free
deep down i know
they need to go
out into the world
to shine their light
to share his love
with others*
to live confidently
on their own
so very
far away from
home
i cannot smother
i must not cling
but, to let them
go and spread
their wings
a hole
in my heart
left by their
absence
i know, yes, i know
it is time
it is right
to take a deep breath,
to smile
through
this emptiness
and to be ever
so proud
of them
as hard as it is;
ready or not
i will let go
