Cleansing

Please do not fear,
that which is to come;
darkness reveals the light
as light reveals the darkness.

Please do not run,
from the pain you may endure;
but welcome it freely,
love is the cure.

Tears of pain,
can flood your mind
though they are not
in vain.

Every tear,
represents a petal;
a petal which represents
your sorrows.

There is only one way,
to cure pain;
to end all suffering,
you must cry it away.

I, Johnny,
stand before you,
with a shoulder
to cry upon.

Your tears are too precious and dear,
to let drift away so  save them
for the ones you hold dear;
because we are the ones who wipe them away
