Now, Let Me Go

As my mind would began to race,
And the confusion quickly set in
I knew of only one place,
It was a place I’d often been

It was a field of nothing special,
But near that I could wander
Amongst the grass I’d nestle,
And on my thoughts I’d ponder

Lying within the tall grass,
And purple flowers so lovely
Wishing the feelings to pass,
Getting lost in clouds above me

This tranquil place offered reprieve,
Of which my soul would yearn,
And the equanimity I received,
Allowed me a page to finally turn

Now, let me go, I tell the flowers,
And to the grass of which I just lied
I may be back at some other hour,
But for now, I say goodbye
