Sometimes you have to let that wave
Wash upon you
Sometimes you have to let it
Swallow you whole

You can try to stay numb
But eventually those feelings will catch up with you
And when they find you years later
The breakdown is exponential

All those years of feelings piling up
Stored away in the dark
Where you thought you’d never have to deal

When they erupt, look out!
It’s dangerous for anyone to be near
Worse, it’s debilitating for you,
Body, mind, and spirit

So let that wave lap at your feet
Let the waters rise up
Cleanse you in the spirit of release
Let that wave pound at you until
There are no more tears to cry
