Emotional Release

 Wipe away the tears

For the tears are an outcry

An outcry for the sadness within

When we dwell in our pain

Our emotional pain

We put ourselves into a box

Closing the lid and hiding

Hoping, one day the lid will be opened

And the emotional pain gone

Yet staying in this stupor

Brings no good, no help, no release

When I burst through this barrier

I liberate myself

Bringing light, healing and a new day

Allowing God to show me the way
