How to Surrender
I used to think surrender
was the easy option
just shrug your shoulders
roll your eyes
and give in quietly.
But now I am talking about
something different
harder,
more courageous.
So take a deep breath
It might be risky...
Open those clenched hands
extend those folded arms
lean out past the point of balance
and let go
Let go control
Let go “knowing”
Risk it all on Trust
You might land
in the water
surprised you didn't drown
and finding you can float
You might discover
wings that take you
higher than you
ever thought possible.
You might fall
into the abyss
and much, much later
be caught
in the tender hands of Love.
in the tender hands of Love.
