Let Go

Tight fisted,
I looked at the stars above,
wondering if I would see an angel,
whom I could ask for what I want.

A few sleepless nights passed,
and the stars continued to twinkle in its own accord.
I cursed under my breath,
for the hurt I felt,
and the fact that no miracle happened...

My nails dug deeper into my palms,
My heart beating way faster,
I was looking up as if I was betrayed,
and yet no angle in the twinkling lights!

And then as if drained of standing still,
and waiting on things to change,
I opened my palms which were scarred now,
and decided to let go.

I still haven't seen the angel,
and no, the hurt didn't go away,
but as i opened up my close fist,
and let go,
I realized a new life is on its way...
