Holding on...to the past

Holding on to this and that, is it really worth holding on to it all?
I am tired of holding onto the past,
it's dragging me deeper into this saddness that I feel at times.
I want to live my life like I'm going to die tomorrow,
I want to feel good to be alive everyday, every minute,
live like I am going to die tomorrow.
I can't seem to live like that though, while holding
onto things from the past,
holding onto saddness,
saddness that has nor reason being there.
Lord, help let go,
of the baggage I don't need to carry with me any longer,
Help me unload it all,
and live as it's the last day of my life.
