Let go the past

Watching the sunset, it just dawned upon me that the day has come to an end

Admiring the beautiful color palette on the sky, a melancholy why I still felt?

The birds appear returning abode as if they have their little ones to tend

Why do the myriad of my thoughts still remain unsettled, is it something that cannot be dealt?

Was the day really hard or is it just the act of my mind?

Was it just a small thing and did I just overreact?

Do I need to be perfect or to myself I need to be a bit more kind?

How to handle the unknown unknowns I still need to learn the tact

The sky seems to be at peace now, a dark curtain has spread across

The moon has spread its warmth around with the cool breeze playing along

Trying to make peace with my mind, I am still negotiating with my thoughts

Is this a simple thing or is it a process long drawn?

Whatever it is, it is just a phase, forever it will not last 

I need to choose my battles wisely and let go my past
