YOU'RE NOT A PRISONER OF THIS WAR

I'll listen intently
I'll listen to your heart

Sometimes, there aren't words to say

When you're breaking apart

I hear your heart beating 

As it cries on my shoulder 

I'll hold it in silence

I'm just the beholder

Words are of little comfort

When you just need to be heard 

When you need to talk

Because feelings are stirred

I'll come sit with your pain

I'll quietly be there a while

I'll silently pray

I'll encourage and smile

And when you've finally been heard

And the tears are brushed away 

I'll give you a long embrace

And it's then, I will say;

You're worth fighting for

Don't quit, don't give up

You're not a prisoner of this war
