Scatterbrain: Let Go

The games we play
To hide our deepest feelings
And thoughts
As if we are walking with armor
Protecting what?
The benefits of pain
Learning that love is the gain
Letting go is the mission
Upon completion
Investment is increased
Patience, it takes time
As long as it’s not wasted
But savored
Marching towards the goal
Over obstacles
But once it is reach
It is oh so sweet
Why don’t you join?

Fear of exposing one's true feelings is an instinct we learn at an early age. So we keep them all bottled up on the inside. Sad, but rather natural.

@nobby....why let fear hold you back from the great things that life has for you? Yes we learn that at a young age, but eventually we are taught that the best things in life are the ones that require us to let fear go. GO HARD or GO HOME!...lol

In my creative writing class, the girls are able to write things, that the boys, are unable to express. Of course I would never say that in class, as to discourage any of them. Surprisingly the poetry is where the boys shine, especially because of the influence of rap.
