I find myself in that familiar place where wounds reopen and the feeling of danger beckons to race Old scars wanting to tear apart like a stray bullet to the heart Old habits emerge so mindless despite being met with kindness I question if I've really healed If these years have anything to yield Uncomfortable is how I've felt Do I peek at this hand that is dealt I'm at a crossroad of old and new Simply locked scared at what to do Yet I know I will choose you I will always wear my heart on my sleeve No matter the times it's torn away In the work I've done I believe Will keep you beside me day by day This 'uncomfortable' is my test Trust me that you'll get my best My work will not be undone because what we have has just begun

My Mettle
I find myself in that familiar place where wounds reopen and the feeling of danger beckons to race Old scars wanting to tear apart like a stray bullet to the heart Old habits emerge so mindless despite being met with kindness I question if I've really healed If these years have anything to yield Uncomfortable is how I've felt Do I peek at this hand that is dealt I'm at a crossroad of old and new Simply locked scared at what to do Yet I know I will choose you I will always wear my heart on my sleeve No matter the times it's torn away In the work I've done I believe Will keep you beside me day by day This 'uncomfortable' is my test Trust me that you'll get my best My work will not be undone because what we have has just begun
Healing after a breakup is tested when to try to date once more. Those feelings will come back as a defensive layer, your reaction is everything
