Worry

I wish I didnt worry About how it is for you

When I feel you may be suffering Or lonely in your heart

How can I know the truth of it?

There is in any case nothing I can do Unless you reach out

And I am not responsible for everything So why do I feel that I am?

I am trying these days Just to let it go

There is nothing I can say or do that will change so many things

And when my thoughts take wing And fly to strange destinations

What happens to the body That contains this mind And gets left behind?

Isn’t it upset That I got lost In never ending circles?

Isn’t it praying for me to come home to this present moment?

So let me say to all these thoughts You are just thoughts

And I can never know the truth of it Why not say

I will let go

And just for this moment I will not worry
