a silenced heart
drowning in tears
in a Christian world
where one’s “supposed”
to be strong
afraid to mention weakness
but why?
God strengthens through tears

it’s okay to laugh
it’s okay to cry
it’s okay to speak
how you feel
if the feelings are wrong
correction may be made
to align one’s heart
with heaven

never be afraid to be YOU
if you’ve never known God
you’re not you
there’s an identity to explore
a new meaning to life
a freedom that’s experienced
through the living word
