let go



the unknown
it beckons.  

this cave;
this dark entrance;
an abyss.

You may be the light that
guides me into these depths;

but I am the spark, the song 
that will
show you where to take me.

I am not afraid
of the dark,
of these infinite depths within.

No.

(Then what is causing this trembling,
this infinite reluctance to let go,
this approach and retreat?) -

this Tower
has already crumbled;
this Phoenix
has already been turned to ash.

So.

The fear is of
re-birth;
this re-claiming
of Desire and
strength.
To own the ability to create, and to destroy.

I am ready
to be un-done.

Unravel me
and maybe
I will let you witness
how I weave myself together.
