Expression
Expression!
The deep feelings of one’s heart are now revealed
As all eyes and ears stand attentive to see and hear
Displayed emotions opened, no longer concealed
When conveying of thoughts bring us no more fear
This manifest light upon one’s face to show their desire
Squeezing out that voice silenced for so many years
Making known our inmost burdens burning with fire
Revealing this intimacy of heart, hoping everyone hears
Oh, this great need to open our souls to be read
With phrases and words to explain how we feel
Oh, the glorious blessing, having not fear nor dread
In expressing ourselves to enjoy such a liberating thrill
