Palms

You can not go on with clenched fists
The only thing you will gain is 
Nail marks in your palms 
And sore muscles

You must learn to let go 
And learn that there are others whose hands can fill the empty spots in you own
You must push on but 
It need not be alone 

The clenched fists await the bruises 
And wait for the fight to start
Open hands are quick to welcome, 
The beginning of an open heart

  1. Sarah Young agrees. The only distance to be pushed through is a 24 hour capsule. Much more manageable than a liftetime or a decade, or a year, or a month. And if 24 hours is too much, the push can be further reduced to now.
