    Go...

    we never want to hear mom say, "no"

    we never want to see dad shake his head

    the wish to feel the love not sent from above

    but from the ones who it can be said.

    Letting it all go...

    the memories fading faster now speedy

    is it wrong to let go those parents so dear?

    is keeping my sanity something that sounds greedy?

    I think i may,

    I think I might

    give my parents, old friends and loved ones

    away from my memory tonight

    I think they may

    I think they might

    not really notice or shed tears

    when their memory in my mind fades tonite

    Im letting it go...

    let the love go adrift

    maybe the freedom I feel now is their untold legacy

    maybe my freedom is their gift

    To all the times I wished for more

    for all the times I hoped for change

    some things never will...

    thats why it is me that must re-arrange

    So while they will always be in my mind

    and my blood runs thick with familial soul

    the reality still remains...

    it will always be an unrealized goal...

    -Z-

    P.s. Im ok..just got hit with some random inspiration...I think I am getting closer to letting go of those once closest to me. Age...(shakes head) what an amazing thing.

    the past is a ghost who haunts the unwary

    it seems to close and so scary.

    yet being dead

    it can not cause true dread

    power we give it without knowing

    its energetic might is flowing

    but, its all in our head.
