Why don't we talk about feelings in our family
every once in a while I need to hear you say
that you are proud of me
We have all been through a lot I know
but would it hurt so bad
to just let our feelings show?
Why can't I just say I love you
when that's how I really feel?
Why can't we just say what we mean?
why can't we just for once be for real?
All I know is that I get so
vulnerable when I open up
and my body aches with a pain
that I can't stop
I hope that one day we will tear down this wall
because I know that together we can face the world
together we will stand tall!
