Let me grieve,
And let me sob
Allow me to cry
Let me be distraught
Let me mourn,
And let me sigh
Allow me to lament
My dear one has died
Let me in silence sit;
Let my tears run their track
Down my cheek, each one from my eyes,
For the sweetest one is no longer in my sight
Allow me to grieve
With anthem and sing
When my mouth needs an outlet
For this pain I am in
Let me be silent,
Without a word;
In the quiet of your presence
Let my heart be heard
Let me tell you, I'll feel joy
Once again;
But in this moment,
Just let me hang my head
I will be alright,
Though I'll always be different,
Not always from the trauma
But changed because of the moment
Let me grieve,
And let that be okay;
For the one I love is missing
Now from me every day
