Closure

It’s hard to close the door

& open another one 

There’s so much resistance to that closure 

Yet there’s so much freedom with opening 

But it still runs the risk of breaking your heart into pieces 

Either way that you swing that door

You know it’s time 

Yet even the slightest bit of resistance makes you second-guess everything 

Even that negativity, that toxic pull, those memories that sit behind the exit you so desperately need to close 

But yet the freedom of the open entryway is beckoning 

Screaming at you 

to just let it go Jill

To just be open & receptive to what is waiting beyond that opening 

It’s okay to walk through and shut the old one. 

It’s not your fault that you’re having to close the door behind you 

Don’t be afraid to step into this newness

Don’t be afraid to just move forward and not look back 

You’re ready, you don’t have to convince yourself anymore

you just need to let go and feel that freedom 

Let the weight and the shackles of what’s behind you be completely removed 

Let them sink

You are safe

Close the door 

Exit the pain 

Move forward in freedom

It’s time
