It’s Okay to Cry
It’s Okay to cry
hide not those teary eyes
for they are beautiful
just as they are.
Let pearls of sorrow fall
let them relieve an aching heart.
Let no one judge your pain,
and let none say, it’s not okay to cry.
Rain falls
and clouds do get dark,
yet we fear not the rain
we let it fall
to wash away our pain.
It’s okay to cry,
come lean your head upon my shoulder
come sleep awhile upon my lap.
The darkness is passing,
the night can’t last
and the rain that has pounded strongly
upon the rooftops will stop.
It will give way to a new day
it will yield a beautiful rainbow
full of hope for tomorrow
full of joy for the new day that has arrived.
