Making Room
Sometimes you just need a good, authentic cry
from a place deep enough that only you can feel.
You have no words to provide an explanation
for why you need the cry.
You just do.
Sometimes there is a why, and sometimes there isn’t.
But it’s okay.
It’s your cry to be had and no one else’s.
It’s not a cry to get attention or another’s sympathy.
It definitely doesn’t need an audience.
It just needs a safe, quiet place to be felt and released.
It’s good to air out your soul,
to release what has reached its expiration date
in order to make room for more joy and goodness
to come fill up the space your tears were taking up.
Tears cleanse the soul
and for reasons near and dear only to me
my soul got a good, refreshing cleansing tonight.
Ahh…..(sigh)
Sleep well sweet soul…
