JUST LEAVE IT



JUST LEAVE IT

 

All your days you stood strong, you gave and you bore 

Always the helper, the solver, the shore.

When others would stumble, you carried their weight,

And your first thought was always: I’ll figure it out, it can wait.

 

But life gently whispers, through seasons and tides 

Not everything needs to be fixed, or explained, or tied.

Not every burden was meant for your hands to retrieve.

Sometimes the truest of wisdom is simply: Just Leave It.

 

If they’ve heard your voice once, and they still turn away 

Do not break your spirit to make them obey.

Convince them twice, then release, and believe 

If they still will not see it… Just Leave It.

 

When your children grow tall and choose roads of their own 

Love lights their way, but let grace be their throne.

Guide them with kindness, then step back and breathe 

Choice is their birthright. Just Leave It.

 

If your heart cannot meet theirs, no matter how you try 

Not every frequency reaches every sky.

Forcing connection will only grieve 

Where harmony fails you… Just Leave It.

 

Let the critic’s sharp words pass over your head 

Peace is a treasure too precious to shred.

You’ve walked many winters, you’ve woven your wreath 

Why dim your own sunshine for someone’s belief? Just Leave It.

 

When the outcome lies far beyond where you can reach 

Stop worrying, dear heart, it is not yours to teach.

What is written will happen, though you may not perceive

The hand that holds stars knows. Just Leave It.

 

When the weight of expectation bows down your chest 

When “more than you can carry” becomes the request 

Release the pressure, let your spirit reprieve 

You are enough, as you are. Just Leave It.

 

Walk your own journey, at your own gentle pace 

Do not measure your harvest by another’s grace.

Different strengths, different seasons why grieve or conceive?

No flower is less because it does not bloom like the rose. Just Leave It.

 

You carry a wealth that no loss can erode 

The priceless gold of experience, the grace on your road.

Why weigh daily gains against what you believe?

Your worth is already held .....Just Leave It.

 

Whatever unfolds is woven by His design 

Not a breath, not a leaf, nor a moment outside.

Accept what you cannot change, improve what you can 

And surrender the rest to Lord's hand.

 

And if these words do not speak to where you abide 

Then take them gently, and set them aside.

One last truth, and then silence complete:

If this message is not yours… Just Leave It.
