I am my own

Laura Mayotte

Pain holds me close inside this hollow body
My heart pounding in my ears
My mind tiered yet carrying on
Release me from this prison I have made for my self
Let me be free
Let me make my mind my own
Let me live my life the way I want to
Let me be free
No more fear
No more running from shadows
No more hiding from the sun
Time to take control
Time to stand tall
The choices I make are my own
The outcome is the cross I will bare
My mind is my own
My decisions are my own
And…
I am scared
