My soul is afraid Of when love used to be dangerous, When home was not synonymous with protection, And when I wasn't safe Even from myself. Memories contuse my heart And leave bitter embers on my brain. I wonder when I will be able to let go Of a past that should not hold so much power Over a future I've worked so hard for.

Fear's Contusion
My soul is afraid Of when love used to be dangerous, When home was not synonymous with protection, And when I wasn't safe Even from myself. Memories contuse my heart And leave bitter embers on my brain. I wonder when I will be able to let go Of a past that should not hold so much power Over a future I've worked so hard for.
