Transformation of forgotten fears

Real to us when we forget the

Advice we give freely to others.

Nesting in our minds conflicting

Spills of guilt, we cannot control

Fighting against the layers, we hide.

Only there is another way.

Realising we deserve hope too

Moving forward rather than back

Allow ourselves a breather

Tell a tale of promise and love

Instead of being hurtful

Our self inflicted punishment

Never winning.
