You are twisted in knots
pulled here, there, everywhere,
responsibilities,
avoiding hostilities,
paying utilities,
cleaning facilities.
You are wound tight
tossed left and right
crushed under mighty
feet, but step into this
darkened space
seek solace from the thoughts
that race,
trace peace.
Surcease.
Breathe in.
Breathe out.
Release.

Diana Wynne Jones writes, in Fire and Hemlock,
That’s profound.
Sad, too.
But on second thought- what does ‘let them go forever’ mean, really? Release them to the universe? Trust them? Say good-bye? Embrace them?
Can you hold someone physically while letting them go emotionally? or visa versa?
What do you think of this quote? What do you think Wynne-Jones means? Is it true?
