Keep Holding On

The tears in your eyes

speak the volumes of sorrow,

you have survived.

The lies you have told

to protect your inner self, crumbles,

as the truth, that is not free, 

begins to unfold.

The bold and the beautiful

weeping those same tears, 

but of joy, can appreciate

the great lengths you have gone 

to protect your mind from going wrong.

Take a deep breath 

and walk tall

because the pain you have just been through

won't last too long.
