i can cry!

As it turns out
I'm not a robot.

A few months ago
My ability to cry was only
In the spirit.
I would cry at how grateful I was to be
Saved.

But I could not cry
In the natural.
And I prayed for tears
For a whole year.

Yesterday, I finally let my guard down,
And people saw me cry...

And I cried because I was
Sad.
Not because I was full of
Joy.

God knew I needed a full year
To stabilize and not get overwhelmed
With my suppressed emotions.

Now he is reaching into my
Innermost being.
And giving me the gift of
Emotion.

Tears are okay after all...
There's nothing to be afraid of when
Ur ready to feel.
