on healing, and acceptance
Troubled Child, tell me of your past,
tell me what's in your head,
tell me of your fears,
and I will put them at ease.

Afflicted Soul, tell me of your heartache,
tell me of your pain,
tell me of your sorrows,
and I will listen to you.

Precious Jewel, show me your treasures,
show me the value within,
show me your priceless stones,
and I won't take them away.

Restless Warrior, show me your battle ground,
show me the stains of blood,
show me your scars,
and I won't look away.

Subtle Player, give me your secrets,
give me the knowledge you have,
give me an honest answer,
and I will give you my trust.

Master of disguise, give me the character you don't play
give me truth,
give me all your masks,
and I will give you acceptance.

Beautiful Artist, let me listen to you,
let me hear your song,
let me see the paintings in your mind,
and I will not close my eyes.

Profound Prisoner, let me set you free,
let me make you smile,
let me take your hand and run with you,
and I will hold on forever.
