Let Me Cry


 

 
 

Reality erases expectations

leaving a trail of broken truths

tears threaten internal drowning

if I don't release them soon

 
 

Doubt displaces security

uprooting years of peace

fear promises suffocation

unless I start to breathe

 
 

Frustration ousts comfort

tramples core beliefs

exhaustion finds my heart

bruises it with a squeeze

 
 

A single realization

tears my world apart

let me scream, cry, and grieve

embrace a new version of me

 
 

Sandy Knauer, 2005
