Healing

These aren't pains
the burdens I cradle
they have names
and now I am able

to face them
change them
or bless them

And I thank you most
for what you did
and didn't

from the inside rose
someone I had forgotten

She's a good girl
she's no stranger
she's wiser
'cause she has come to know

healing is from the inside
when I look close enough i see
healing is from the inside
peace is in the place within me

the rainy day
invites melancholy
but in this place
nothing ever hurts

it's not lonely here
all good things appear
i still hold you dear

it's not the last time
persephone comes to visit me
but it's not a bad time
when she leaves

i'm a good girl
i just wander
i'm no stranger
'cause i have come to know
