Can I sit with you
for a moment or two
and talk about
pleasant things
and share an easy smile
because my thoughts are heavy
with concerns
I can not control
and my heart aches
for wounds
I can not heal
and my eyes weep
at suffering
I can not ease
and my soul cries
for freedom from
chains
I can not break
and before it all
becomes too much
and before I am
overwhelmed
can I sit with you
for a moment or two
and talk about
pleasant things
and share an easy smile?
