I woke this morning with the feeling
Of how there is a torrent inside me
That I held back for years
And now that you have shown me
Its okay to ask for what I need
Its okay to express anger and disappointment
Its okay to be me
Well now I feel inside myself dissolving to water
And tears are falling that are for
The entirety of the journey and most of all for love
The love that my parents felt
But found so hard to show
As they had to battle on alone
And as it releases
All the pressure inside
That set me at war with myself
Is leaving
And I find myself breathing
Long slow breaths and exhalations
And it seem as though
A life time of frustration is leaving me
As my flood becomes my flow
Where it will lead me I do not know
But I have the courage now to trust this river
To open to be this person
With the love in my heart
Ready and willing
To make a brand new start

It takes a thunder to calm the summer heat… your ‘Flood’ is an apt metaphor for the heat of emotions under the skin and years in the making..
