There were a few things my heart couldn't let me share. A few words my mouth dared not declare. A fleeting thought that I wouldn't let take hold. The breath I fought to keep these few fears from being told. There are a few things I've yet to overcome. And until then... I shall hold onto them... But, only until sharing them I can let be done. When I know that I faced that beast and won.

Not Quite Ready
There were a few things my heart couldn't let me share. A few words my mouth dared not declare. A fleeting thought that I wouldn't let take hold. The breath I fought to keep these few fears from being told. There are a few things I've yet to overcome. And until then... I shall hold onto them... But, only until sharing them I can let be done. When I know that I faced that beast and won.
Sometimes... We can't let others save us. We can't speak about our fears to them; even if they could possibly help. Sometimes, we have to learn to face them ourselves. We have to lift that heavy sword, turn around, and face the beast all on our own. We have to build up the courage to do so. We have to be our own fairy tale hero.
