The fears I left behind
Running
Running
From what I knew would hurt me
Watching the past come to the present
What had happened is happening
AGAIN
The single fear that I thought I left behind
has come back
Running
Running
From something I can’t get away from
The fear is coming
fight back the fear
Watching the fear leave
Fighting the bad thoughts
The first time I can let go.

I thought that I had left the fear at my old school but right when I got to my new school I knew it came back and that I would have to either fight back or run away from it
