SET ME FREE

Trying to overcome the fear that I feel from sharing the things that I have done and that have happened to me....

The ideas are overwhelming,

the words don't want to come.

Fear keeps them captive,

prisoners of what I've done.

 

The truth shall set me free,

but not without a price.

Judgement comes for free

and never is it nice.

 

Hush my fears,

just keep them quiet.

Open my mind,

so that I can write it.

 

Find my inner strength,

to relieve another's burden.

Heal our hearts together,

through words I've never spoken.

I love this. It speaks for so many people, but a writer must have courage. How do you feel when you read somone reveal the same pain or flaw as you ? It's a gift given by a writer who said to hell with it..this is me. There are no perfect people out here. There are good people who have survived mental instituions, addictions, prostitution, and countless other tragedies. That was a beautiful piece that was honest. If you reveal a deep dark pain, and someone were to attack you, he would be ripped to shreds by all of us who have fallen. Be bold..release your pain in the way you know best. Rain..
