SHEDDING LIGHT

You ask the questions
No one else dared
Stripped down bare
Plunging into depths
Seeking out the truth

Dredging up the pain
Never before seen
Bringing light of day
To a soul who waited
So very very long
To find understanding
In your special way

Wipe the tears away
All the years to fade
Within your acceptance
Trust in your eyes your way
Comfort in what you now say

Never spoken the depth
Hidden away in sorrow
A pain too deeply buried
Finding it shedding light
No more easy flight now

Down to the heart of it all
Seeing what matters most
Wrapped up in your song
Letting me know that I belong
No matter what trust endures

Now all over it comes in view
Time to give due to all of it
Learning to let go of what rips
At a heart longing to be free
Now you see what is real
What is truly me because
You dared saw and held me
