mellow

Howls,
night after night,
collide with the screams
of a torn fabric
left on the ground.

A map,
smeared on his face,
divides the crooked
byway.

Sighs,
between the sundowns,
confine the
unbounded clock.

The moon,
inhaling the peach,
penetrates the 
fatness of veins.

Into the earthy tones
of madness, 
the absence of light
breaks the hold of 
the hope
that stains the bleeding,
the speeding of hours. 

The mouth,
barrenly dry,
resigns from the flames
of the worn panic
lost in his sound.

The Worn Panic

“Let Me Go” is a quiet release — the moment when love, memory, and pain finally loosen their grip.
It’s not written in anger. It’s written in truth.

This song speaks to someone you once held with deep compassion, someone whose wounds shaped the bond between you. But healing means stepping back, unclenching the past, and allowing both souls to breathe again.

A gentle message wrapped in haunting simplicity:
“I’m OK now… and it’s time. Please let me go.”

For anyone who’s ever loved someone they couldn’t keep — this is the sound of closure, peace, and finally finding your own way forward.

Lyrics:

I was a mirror in your story,
you were a lantern in my night.
Two broken-hearted travelers
trying to make sense of the light.
We held a truth we couldn’t carry,
we touched a place we couldn’t stay…
But I’m grateful for the moment
that brought our shadows into day.

No blame, no weight, no sorrow —
just the turning of a page.
We were never meant to borrow
what we couldn’t hold or save.

It’s okay… I’m okay.
You don’t need to circle back my way.
You can lay your burden down
on the shore of yesterday.
You were seen, you were known,
in the place where love was grown.
And now the kindest truth I hold is this:
you’re free to let me go.

You were a whisper in the silence,
I was a shelter from the rain.
We were young and raw and searching,
carrying stories without names.
But you don’t owe me any healing,
and I don’t owe you any pain.
The road ahead is open —
no ghosts left to explain.

No fear, no fire, no echo —
just the quiet of release.
Two travelers moving onward
with a gentler kind of peace.

It’s okay… I’m okay.
You don’t need to circle back my way.
You can lay your burden down
on the shore of yesterday.
You were seen, you were known,
in the place where love was grown.
And now the kindest truth I hold is this:
you’re free to let me go.

If the past still holds you softly,
let the light come through the cracks.
You don’t need to hold my memory
like a promise pulling back.
We were real in all the ways that matter —
that’s enough for me to know.
And the love we found in silence
is the love that lets us grow.

It’s okay… I’m okay.
You can find your gentle road today.
Every tear and every truth
has already had its say.
You were held, you were known,
and the story’s finally grown.
So with a grateful heart, I whisper this:
you’re free… to let me go.
