I dwell within my sadness
So that I may set it free.
To ignore it is to cage it
And so I let it be.
I let the tears fall freely
And I let my shoulders shake.
I feel it through my body
As I sleepless lie awake.
If I ignored my sadness
I would only let it grow.
Deep in my soul t\'would fester
And I wouldn\'t even know.
Until one day some tiny thing
Creates internal clatter,
And my sadness cage clangs opens
And in that moment I shatter.
So instead I feel my sadness
And then by the light of dawn,
I set free all those emotions
And I\'m no longer forlorn.
