Letting Go

There was a blank piece of paper. I started writing and this poem showed up. I've been trying to express the feeling of life, what it is, our dreams, hopes, and the tangle of reality, and making the most of each day:
"Letting go of heartbreak
is truly letting go
of what I hoped life would be
and loving what is so.
Life and expectation
is a funny, painful thing.
The more you try to shape it,
the more it starts to sing...
its own melody, with words you do not know.
You only learn the words to life as
you let your heart let go.
Let life teach you your song
And revel in the learning."
