speak your mind
but watch your tongue
your not the only one here

tell your tale
but make it quick
we can hear it with our ears

speak of truth
or what you know
neither is ever wrong

but if you think
only you can feel
then you’ve been broke far too long

we want to see
light in your eyes
but we cannot make it be

your family friends
and all lost loves
for that is who you need

time was short
but not too fast
it can slow if you take a breath

though your life has passed
and you think it’s done
your spirit has been kept

it stayed with you
all along
it never even left

so when you say
your life was pain
and a heavy load you heft


remember pain
is carried on ever soul
but no one is alone

I’m here to say
it will be okay
my brother your going home
