Hold me while I break free

Hold me while I break down

Share my breath 

And quietly witness my tears

They run 

Not because something is wrong

But because I am walking

Out of my prison

And I need to release my sorrow. 

Hold me while I break down 

Help me pick up the pieces 

Walk with me in the forest of fog

Where I get lost

Seeking a path

Never walked before

While I search for me 

Hold me 

Not with your arms

But your presence

Your sweet smile

And never ending song

Creating a home for me

A safe space

Where my tears are welcome

Where my pain is not all alone
My reverence received

Hold me in your heart

So I know what family feels like

So I  Feel I am Home 

Hold me

With your eyes

With your essence

Your own darkness

Rising up to meet mine

Hold me while I break down

Hold me while I break free.
