Time to let it all out...

Inside your eyes, I can see, so much built up brokenness:
The silent shadows, of days gone by; and.....so much hiddenness
Though you speak not of your inner pain, the tears that well up.. do
Let me take your hand in mine; together we'll make it through..

For quite a while, I have watched you, now, without saying what I know
The days have built up and the months elapsed: before  I had to tell you so
You have been the brave one; and so strong.. but now it is time to cry..
Let out those hurts ..those years of pain ..when others passed you by..

The ones,  who watched, and said nothing good; would have you keep it in
Their logic is: that the years are gone ..why should you revive them again?
Is it their concern, for the years gone by; or the fact they did nothing then
I tell you, my dear, it is okay to speak out and heal your soul within

The shell, that surrounds your heart and mind, is slowly breaking down
You know,  you're ok, with telling all: there's a new freedom you have found
No more a victim, or a frightened soul:  you can cry out from deep inside
"It is not okay, to be silencing me...  for its your own guilt you're trying to hide"
