Meet the New Storyteller

Do you want 
your story to be told?
Then, meet the new storyteller:
he'll write down every detail;
pull those memoirs
out of the drawer:
sit down with him
and start telling it all!
Reveal every secret,
be open and be bold:
others can learn
from the tough days
you went through!

From beginning 
to end: get pain,
delusions, tears 
and anxieties
off your chest;
feel no shame, 
show courage!

Do you want 
your story to be told?
I'll be your ghostwriter,
don't say a word,
keep it a secret.

Meet the new storyteller,
this stranger can become
your trustworthy friend;
pour your guts out: 
lash out with rage,
let your courage
ease the heaviness inside,
renew your hope, not fear!
Meet the new storyteller,
let's create a lasting bond
between two who have lived their life
and won't ever surrender 
to whatever may come...
defeating thoughts that bring doubt!
