when all is faded, among life's dismay
when the rumbling clouds awake my fears
that I've gone to battle, held back for years and year
The heart that's weathered a thousand days
still beats, but sometimes still loses its way
I run to where I know I can hide
most often someplace secret, deep inside
When I first felt the need to run
it was to safe myself from a broken son
and I find there are times when I still feel the pain
like opening up a scabbed wound again
The scars run deep and I usually find
that they seem so distant, like they weren't mine
But this week, these days have held them clear in from of me
Fear arises, and I can't help but see
How I'm still waking from this too-real dream
that I have faced it again - opened up to see
The vulnerable little boy within
still silly at times, but often still fighting to live
From darkest night to sun's first rays
Still walking with you, to find our way.
