In the quiet shadows where memories reside
Loss whispers softly, a tide we cannot hide
Clinging to echoes of laughter and light
Yet in the silence, we find our own might
The heart, once heavy with sorrow's embrace
Learns to dance in the empty space
For every tear that falls like rain
A seed of hope begins to gain
In the garden of grief, where we often tread
New blooms arise from the tears we've shed
The past, a tapestry of moments we hold
Yet the future, a canvas of stories untold
Why grasp the shadows of what used to be
When the dawn brings a chance to see?
The beauty in letting go, in setting free
The soul's journey to simply be
The trees, wise in their seasonal grace
Let go of leaves without a trace
For in the letting go, they find
The promise of spring, a renewal of kind
Loss, a teacher in life's grand scheme
Guides us gently to dream new dreams
For every ending, a beginning awaits
In the dance of life, we find our fates
So, let the old leaves fall, let them rest
In the cycle of life, we are truly blessed
For in the letting go, we find our call
To live, to love, to embrace it all
