We hide them away
In the recesses of our heart
Out of sight
Out of mind
But we don’t realise
That in the darkness they grow
Grow to dominate our thinking
And shape our identity
They bubble to the surface
In any moment of weakness
We try to keep them submerged
But their ripples distort everything we see
Let go
Of the need to hide
Of the fear of rejection
Take back control of your life
We let go
And the wounds of our past
Heal up into scars
And we can move on
