Why don't we talk..?

Why don't we talk about feelings in our family

every once in a while I need to hear you say

that you are proud of me

We have all been through a lot I know

but would it hurt so bad

to just let our feelings show?

Why can't I just say I love you

when that's how I really feel?

Why can't we just say what we mean?

why can't we just for once be for real?

All I know is that I get so

vulnerable when I open up

and my body aches with a pain

that I can't stop

I hope that one day we will tear down this wall

because I know that together we can face the world

together we will stand tall!
