Intuition

The past clings closer

To those who fear it

But it seems, 

I can't shake my own

Fear isn't what draws it

Like a moth to candle light 

But my own weary apprehension

I know I'm fine

That no harm will come

But it's still there, in the far

Reaches of my mind

Warning me

Always keeping watch

So that the past

Doesn't become another reality

Intuition The thing that keeps us safe, or the thing that hurts us in the in, The sixth sense is always good, but sometimes its imperfection can mislead. you expressed the depth of uncertainty stemming from past issues, and also a worry about the outcome of similar situations if ignored, wonderful write.

Thank you :) Any reason why?

Word selection is better hear except that the moth to light line is too much of a loan phrase. There's a bit more depth here, but that's just me.

Having just read a book about psychology, I automatically connected your poem to a case of dissociative identity disorder. The patient, Lucie, had multiple personalities because of something that happened in her past. One personality has suppressed the memory, and another had turned it into a constant reality, reliving the frightening experience time and time again...I think that's a bit of an extreme for your poem, though. This is more along the lines of how we need to remember our history because history always repeats itself. Great write, Skye! Thank you.

I kind of thought this sounded like paranoia, but I see what you mean...
