I’ve been there, been there too often,
Expectation is where love gets put in a coffin,
Put in the effort and expect results to come,
Having hope in the chance to get some,
Hope is not to blame its the cousin expectation,
Hope is humble, the cousin is impatient,
Expectation comes with measures and control,
Trying to guide a balloon after the string you let go,
Just let the wind do is job let its destiny ride,
Currents of the air take the balloon far and high,
Up and away and far out of sight,
To the heavens above it charts its flight,

Letting go of expectations can be a difficult task,
A breath of freedom swimming behind the mask,
Down deep exploring into the sea of tears,
Swimming with the sharks you shed the fears,
Currents of the sea move the fish and the kelp,
Hypnotic is the dance with the fins to help,
The waves of the ocean with the pull of the tide,
Riding the swells of the water letting destiny ride,
Swim to tomorrow and forget the past,
Breathe in today, for each moment to last,
A diamond is cut to sparkle with a shimmer,
If not polished is reduced to a glimmer,
Even a rock so strong and hard needs attention and care,
To keep the sparkle bright and polished from a dull dispare,
Care and attention gives a shine to the rock,
Reflecting light from above to the heart it unlocks,
Let go of the moments for they are to be free,
A moment continuous into eternity.
