Letting others see...

The rain is continuing to fall and so does all my tears
Seems like they are carrying secrets from so many years
Yet like the rain that's watering  the thirsty ground outside
My tears are watering the garden that's growing deep inside.

Sometimes the storms are scary, we want to run and hide
And when the tears are falling we try to keep them all inside
Showing our weakness frightens us; we don't want others to see
That we can be so weak inside : we're walking vulnerability.

Yet in trying to accept ourselves we must learn not to be afraid
Of letting others see the  truth of what we are really made.
We must love ourselves enough to know we are precious indeed
And that We are uniquely beautiful there is nothing more we need.
