Scars in my heart

Threaten to tear me apart, 

I've faced my fears 

And overcame the tears. 

I'm scared inside 

There's nothing to hide, 

I'm not worthy

In your eyes.


Even though I try,

To move away from

The threads that bind

I've stared at defeat 

And wallowed in distress, 

Shaken the walls of dread 

Until silence became a pet. 

Have walked in the twilight 

With nothing in sight, 

Except my dreams for company, 

And the stars underneath. 


Held onto nerves 

And strengthened my reserves, 

Blossomed into something new
