Let Go - Tumblr Posts
Poem: Connections
There’s sometimes a pressure
To craft a proper poem,
One that I impose on myself
To limit my imagination.
I have mostly let go
Of my need to force rhymes
And connections
Where they need not be,
My need
To force connections
That are not meant to be made,
That are not built to last,
But I sometimes cannot help myself from
Forming a bond that’s bound to break.

Wilder Things
I've spent way too many years wondering what you'd say
Way too many hours wishing me away
Waiting for the day that I would finally (maybe) measure up
I've spent way too many nights dying in your walls Way too many daydreams keeping myself small
Holding out my hands to find the glitter in your dust
But Ima take a step back And not worry 'bout how they'll react The thoughts they turned into facts
Oh l'm seeing through the cracks
So I throw my hands up high and scream
"This world has seen much wilder things" I'm taking back the future they've defined
My joy is not a fantasy
I'm liberated from their strings
So love the beat they hate and dance in time
Guess l've fallen from the tree And I know what they say
Bragging from their knees
Saving all the strays
Praying for the day that I will finally cry for help Such a barricaded love
No wonder I feel shame
Infinitely nameless
Ways I am to blame
So l'd sew on my mask so I could smile as I melt
But Ima take a step back And not worry 'bout how they'll react
The thoughts they turned into facts
Oh l'm seeing through the cracks
And I throw my hands up high and scream
"This world has seen much wilder things" I'm taking back the future they've defined
My joy is not a fantasy
I'm liberated from their strings
So love the beat they hate and dance in time
All the years they took from me
Beauty vilified fully
Chains around my hands
They had me Damned Why was it mystery?
Glitter covered tragedies
Everlastingly mighty
Footprints in the sand
Solid as land
My own affirm my journey
Broken glass, I took the keys Conquering these open seas
All the rumors smashed
I'm free at last
Loving my victory
So I throw my hands up high and scream
"This world has seen much wilder things"
I'm taking back the future they defined
My joy is not a fantasy
I'm liberated from their strings
So love the beat they hate and dance in time
Love the beat they hate and dance in time
some people will not see you no matter how hard you work for trying to be seen. this is when you need to let go. letting go is hard as hell, but staying is harder. it will consume you and waste your precious time. so make sure you properly grieve the loss of what you hoped for. soon you will see the situation with a different set of eyes, knowing you did the right thing. staying any longer just wouldn’t benefit you in any way. by letting go you just spared yourself of all the dwelling, hoping, searching and fighting to be seen. the hopeless fighting is over – new chapter stars here 🕊
“Move On From The Past”
Self:
Keep this sigil near where you sleep, preferably under the bed or mattress.
Somebody else:
Draw this sigil on the back of a photo of your target. Set out on windowsill during the new moon.
To hell with them. Nothing hurts if you don’t let it.
Ernest Hemingway (via perfectquote)
As long as you know that you have done all that you could. You won’t feel guilt in letting go.
Bruce Wayne looking at any of his kids: *Gollum voice* My precious!!! AAAAAAH!
Letting go is hard.
Letting go is like watching a leaf drift away on the wind. It’s hard because you know you can’t hold onto it forever. Sometimes, love means setting someone free, even when it hurts, so they—and you—can find new paths and grow in different ways.

the current song stuck in your head .. go !
nature, sometimes likes to remind you, very subtly, about how ethereal she can be, and all you can do is just stare in awe.
(this was taken by an Android okay and it still managed to come out so beautiful, you can only imagine how it looked through just, eyes. yes im dramatic so what)
Let go. Just let go. Why can't I just let go?
let go and grow 🌼
I remember
when it shatters
it feels like they never even cared
it was a white lie
presented with smiles.
It pains,
physically,
deep in your heart.
But perhaps it's nature,
we love,
sometimes we break
and we love again.
You ever want a fanfic of a fanfic ? Yeah me too lmao
QUICKCOMBO: 134340 | FRI(END)S | LET GO
This QC is part of a set. Check out the other version here.
Listening links and my thoughts on this QC below the cut:
This is the combo that results in terminating the relationship and my personal preference but I'm a sucker for a non-traditional-happy-ending. I spent a good chunk of my 20s helping friends understand and sort out if they'd been 'friendzoned' or alternatively trying not to give friends the impression they were more than friends. So I think that's a big part of why I love this interpretation so much. Those situations usually start out with one person feeling like they're being orbited by the other...and usually results in that person making an ultimatum to either become more or end. The lyrics of 134340 sets this up so perfectly and Let Go is really the only healthy response. I remember taking the coward's path once and trying not to hurt the other's feelings by hoping it just fizzles but it really just causes unnecessary stress for everyone involved by not being honest.
...anyway, this got a little more personal than I usually would here. 😶
Here's the links, happy listening!
I'm slowly giving up...
You need to break sometimes, to grow even stronger.
You need to let go in life, to receive better things.
It's a lot easier to be the one sitting in distress, the one who hurts others because he/she is hurting, the one who suffered and isn't ready to accept that he/she deserved it. Yes. Well, damn easy.
But it takes courage to grow past the pain and accept you didn't deserve it and no one deserves to suffer. It takes courage to heal yourself, to find your authentic self and embrace all the heaviness it brings before liberating your soul. Too damn difficult. But is it worth it? Yeah, Above everything in this freaking world.
