You Already Know
I'm hanging on by a thread
The world shredding my soul
I'm so afraid of falling in
I come to you in seclusion
And fall to my knees,
Begging for life
i tell you everything
My pain and my joy
My every struggle and sorrow
I feel your eyes on me
As I pour my heart out
My secret thoughts revealed
Every feeling explained
I'm afraid to life my head
I hide my tear-streaked face
But your voice, soft and sweet,
Whispers, "I already know"
You cradle my broken heart
I silently absorb your unconditional love
How did I forget?
Your adoration for me
Disallows a limit to exist
On the endless flow of wisdom
You readily provide for my troubled soul
You know I need your help
How do I get through this pain?
Gently you dry my tears
And whisper, "You already know"
The answers I seek are already planted within me
Your tender embrace
Permits me to remember
Sweet relief brings peace to my mind
Renewed determination grows within me
And I won't ever let it die.
