yet we dream ahead
while longing for what was
and we learn
that no amount of water will heal us
no matter how much we cry
while longing for what was
and we learn
that no amount of water will heal us
no matter how much we cry

Prayer to Self
Bless the woman within me
the woman i'm trying to heal
the woman i'm trying to be
Help me fill my empty spaces
heal where I am broken
and unearth courage when I'm afraid
Help me gather strength when I feel
weak
and sow hope when in despair
so I may create a brighter tomorrow

Only the Rain Knows
The cotton of my gown clings to my skin
as I drop to my knees in the rain
my tears melding with the drops
both washing away my shame
as I drop to my knees in the rain
my tears melding with the drops
both washing away my shame
I didn't deserve what happened to me
I was a child and wasn't to blame
so I kneel in the dark and I hug myself
just me, the night, and the rain
I was a child and wasn't to blame
so I kneel in the dark and I hug myself
just me, the night, and the rain
