Breaking the chains
No one understands the pain I feel
Because my tears are silent
No one sees the tears that fall
Because they are invisible
And no one comforts the crying soul
Because it pretends to be happy
I don't shed tears
Because there's no where to shed them
And no one hears my sobs
Because there's no one there to listen
But if I want to be heard,
I must first learn to listen
If someone puts me down,
I will look for a way to be kind,
For that person has a temporary need
To elevate themselves
Because I can let go of anger,
And learn to forgive
I can choose to love someone,
Even if I don't like that person
For love is the most powerful force
in the universe
To know great freedom,
All I have to do is accept them,
And love them
I count my blessings,
Instead of my sorrows
Because I know when others let me down,
I know god is still at my side
He is my hope,
And confidence forever
So I can be free of this burden
Of loneliness,
And hopelessness
So I can be unwound,
From these chains of sorrow
So I can be free,
From this wall of nothingness
If I get knocked down,
I can always get up
Its okay to cry,
when you need to shed sadness
But we must rejoice
in our sufferings
Because we know that suffering
Produces perseverance
Do not conform any longer
To the pattern of this world,
But be transformed
by the renewing of your mind
I am uniquely gifted,
No else can be me
We are always number one
With god no matter what we do
