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
