Today Will Turn Gentle

You woke up with a heavy feeling

Like the world was leaning on your chest

Every thought became a louder echo

And your mind could not find any rest

But the morning through the curtain window

Still arrived in quiet shades of gold

As if saying, I have not forgotten

All the tired dreams you still hold

You don’t need to have it all together

You don’t need to hide what you have been through

There is courage in the soft surrender

There is strength in simply making it through

Today will turn gentle

Slowly, little by little

The pain in your chest will loosen in time

Today will turn gentle

Even if tears still tremble

The sun will still find your tired eyes

Hold on, hold on

You are doing better than you know

Today will turn gentle

And your heart will feel it so
