It's okay to cry
Vivian Timmins 1955 (United States)
Now that I've released you as you have me I want to burst into tears that need to be free there's no shame in that I'm not ashamed to say. Naturally you'd interpret that in the wrong way. Arrogantly you'd believe you still have power and see it as weak. Tiny minded people often think too much of self. It merely means you're no longer on my shelf waiting for a rainy day hoping you'll remember what you threw away. IF you can look at it for what it is meaning it's been tossed away for what it was it's gone now for good. No chance of what it could or what it would Now I pave my path & can't wait to see how releasing those tears will truly set me free.
