Phoenix James - ALL USED UP (Official Audio) Spoken Word Poetry

I hope you save or hold nothing back of yourself in this life
I hope you learn to let go
Let go until your heart and your palms are light and bare
Until you free your feet and give birth to wings
Until your mind and spirit find peace
I hope you lay it all out
All of it
Everything
Everything you came with
Everything you now have
All you collected and accumulated
Learned and gathered and became attached to carrying with you along your way
Those treasures you forgot you had
Buried somewhere inside
I hope you discover them again
One day when something feels absent and you're not sure where you are
I hope you leave them all here
Your light and your dark places
All that you are
All that you were and have to give now
Leave them behind for others to find
Here where our gifts are only given to us to be given away
Just like your brilliant smile
It is of no worth to you until it is presented to another
Here, where you are of most use, as was intended
Here where light begets light, and chases away shadows
By the time your wings take you beyond this place
I hope you have left nothing of your self
I hope you take nothing of your value with you
That you leave each and every one of your special little precious gems behind
That your soul floats lightly
In the knowing that you gave much more than you took
I hope you rise filled abundantly with all life gave you, but yet satisfyingly empty
Not a thing unseen, unshared, unsaid, undiscovered or undone
When you leave
May it be with an empty cup
By such time
I hope you're all used up
