And well past my nan<\/p>\n<p>From her mum and from hers, It was never said<\/p>\n<p>Just what occurred, with all those long dead<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Now the therapist moves, and studies the scene<\/p>\n<p>As it seems to unfold like a trilogy<\/p>\n<p>And moves around players<\/p>\n<p>To find what beholds,<\/p>\n<p>Who is missing? what\u2019s left

mother around\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I see now, why my body was aching<\/p>\n<p>It was never attended, no actions were taken<\/p>\n<p>They just buried it, inside their head<\/p>\n<p>And continued along, While They all just bled,<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>From the burden they carried, Which, remained unknown<\/p>\n<p>To all those that followed, It was passed on down<\/p>\n<p>In the form of an energy, on its journey within<\/p>\n<p>Passed, undetected, Without even a whim<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>So now we come forward, and it\u2019s time to address<\/p>\n<p>All this confusion,

establish, all equilibrium<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Please take it now, it belongs to you!<\/p>\n<p>The release that I seek, begins to ensue<\/p>\n<p>It comes in a rush, I have no control<\/p>\n<p>I sob and I sob, and it cleanses my soul<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>I bury my head, in the lap of another<\/p>\n<p>That wonderful one, representing my mother<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019m held for a long time, and it feels so sublime<\/p>\n<p>I begin to recover this hurt heart of mine<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The session is finished, and it needs to be said<\/p>\n<p>to thank all the reps for all that they
