sometimes i find myself letting go
which is not quite accurate for in so
saying i'm placing action where it is not
what i should not say, no what i should say
is sometimes i feel things slipping off
sometimes i feel you falling from my heart
and i never knew how heavy you were
or sometimes the darkness is draining
away and i never new how dim even my days
were and in the bathtub comes
a true baptism that is only for those
blessed ones who no
longer frequent churches
longing to find there gods that they cannot
and in that blessing
water dripping
i know i'm letting go
of you
