Sometimes, it’s okay
To let it go raw
To let it thaw
Above or under the bridge
It is wise or sage
To let it reach the bay
Speak out
Shout out
Let it fall
Let it roll
Let the tears flow
Let the pain go
To a different direction
To a new position
Let it go raw
Let it thaw
Let it go
Let it flow
Let the birds sing
And the bells ring
Today, every day
Sometimes, it’s okay.
