There and Back Again

FREE THE CHILD

Prove to me you can be trusted!
Hope? a razorblade that's rusted
Faith? gone in wounds, blood encrusted
Love? just cobwebs to be dusted.

Hide the pain behind a wall!
Life? Balance carefully, do not fall
Death? too broken to even heed that call
Fear? in truth, it rules us all.

Ignore that child locked inside
Abandon her
Pretend she died
Create a new past
You decide!
Remnants of memories denied.

But she would not give up!
That other me
Demanding the right to be set free
To live
To love
Have hope
Have faith
LET HER OUT!
It's not too late

But
Prove to me you can be trusted.
