Just Let Me Cry

I got on the internet this morning before going to church and ran across this song.  It is so beautiful and somehow it expresses what I can't say to others especially during those times when I need to cry for apparently no reason.

“Just Let Me Cry” by Hilary Weeks

I believe that everything happens for a reason.
We’re not just tossed by the wind,
or left in the hands of fate.
But sometimes life sends a storm that’s unexpected.
And we’re forced to face our deepest pain.
When I feel the heartache begin to pull me under...
I dig my heels in deep,
and I fight to keep my ground.
Still, at times the hurt inside grows stronger.
And there’s nothing I can do but let out...

Just let me cry.
I know it’s hard to see.
But the pain I feel isn’t going away today.
So just let me cry.
Till every tear has fallen.
Don’t ask when and don’t ask why.
Just let me cry.

When I agreed that God could put this heart inside me.
I understood that there would be a chance that it would break.
But I know He knows exactly how I’m feeling...
And I know in time He’ll take the pain away.

But for now...
Just let me cry.
I know it’s hard to see but the pain I feel isn’t going away today.
So, just let me cry.
Till every tear has fallen.
Don’t ask when and don’t ask why.
Just let me cry.

I have felt joy,
the kind that makes my heart want to sing.
And so my tears are not a surrender,
I’ll feel that way again.
But for now...
For this moment...

Just let me cry.
I know it’s hard to see.
But the pain I feel  isn’t going away today.
Just let me cry.
Till every tear has fallen.
Don’t ask when and don’t ask why.
Just let me cry

When I listened to this song and read the words, the tears started flowing and kept coming accompanied by deep sobbing. Those sobs that come from deep in the soul – the ones I keep thinking I'm done with.   

Will this keep happening forever? Will I ever be done with the grieving? I don’t know. But I hope that each time I weep, I am healing.  

So, whenever I need to, please just let me cry.
