New Moon in Leo — Let It Go and Start Over, In The Name Of Self-Love
To let you go
Is to
Let go of it all
Entirely.
All of the possible life scenarios
The family we could’ve had
The family you would envision
The family i would say i didn’t want
The family that i was scared would turn into anything less than perfect.
To let go
Is to let go
Of a piece of myself
The mirror
That shattered but I did
Not
Try to mend
Try to glue back together
To only have a fragmented view through.
To let go
Was to pick everything else up around it
And sweep that mirror up
Diligently
And throw it
Into the bote de basura.
Not into a bag I could possibly
Hopelessly and carefully
Pick back out.
Straight in there.
Then, to let go was to mop
With a swiffer because
Everything — every piece of dirt sticks to that shit —
Peel the cover off and into the basura, it goes, too.
To let go
Is to sage right after
Put music on
To let go
Is to go about my day
As if nothing ever happened.
