FREEDOM

I didn't want to be someone who cries like this.
(Or maybe I did...)
I wanted to just be strong.
(Maybe I am.)
But my soul is weeping at the pain you feel
And it's hard,
But I guess it's meant to be.

So much beauty is trapped
Beneath the surface
Where no one can see,
And I want it to all be free.

So this is the hurting
And this is the joy,
And this is me.

It's a different kind of freedom.
