Let Go


*** 

She speaks
Her words 
Blades 
Shred me to pieces 
Over and Over 
Crushed
I am lost 
Blind
Life cruel 
We struggle
Trapped 
No way forward 
No way back 
No escape 
Let go 
Let go 

***

Sisyphus my friend 
Like you 
I push a boulder 
Timelessly up 
My mountain of life 
To have it roll 
Back down 
Over and over 
Repeatedly 
With No end
You and I 
We are brothers 
Even in despair 
We can find meaning  
Within inner devastation 
Hopelessness 
Though weary of life 
We must carry on 
We Must Carry On 
Let go 
Let go

Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...
