GENTLY HOLD YOUR SORROW

Come and sit with me awhile

Come sit with the feelings you hide

I'm your emotional, your mental anguish

I am the pain, that you've buried inside

I reach into the depths of hurting places

I take your hand to walk with you there

I've come to melt your frozen feelings

To help you live, beyond despair

Don't be afraid, dear one

Pain works with truth, to set you free

I haven't come to break your heart

I've come to free you from your captivity

Come and sit with me awhile

Allow yourself to feel the pain

Let the tears come and fall where they may

But don't hold back or try to abstain

Come, gently hold your sorrow

And feel what you must feel

Once you've felt it; Let it go

It's time to allow yourself to  heal
