“Nothing To Lose”

by A_F_R_O_W

 

There is nothing to lose,

in crying

scotch-bonnet tears.

Releasing decades,

plus years,

of, long-held, fears..

Nothing to lose,

by shaking it off

and away…

…every ounce of anger,

that ruined your day..

and stamped on your Life,

embossing its impact,

in acrid strife.

Nothing to lose,

in pouring 

the inventory

of your heart,

into a compartment,

marked, “Done”.

Nothing to run from.

Nothing can stun you.

No more,

are you living,

restrained..

For,

there’s so much to gain,

from

shouting at thunderstorms,

dancing, in rain,

with smiles,

in the face of chagrin.

No,

there, really is, 

nothing to lose..

as,

to let go,

entirely, 

is an,

irrefutable,

win-win.
