There is nothing in the world someone can hold on to forever,
Nobody can cherish everything there is,
There will always be insecurities and second-guesses,
It is wrong to grasp things and limit possibilities,
Unclench worries and set them free,
Release and let the world go.

© Kimberly C., Houston, TX

The author's comments:
This piece shows how people use perspective to look at things.How we can make the best of something or the worst. The world through my eyes is a place to make the best of, a place to let go of limits and make the impossible possible.
