Facing the Unknown
Will I find love again out there?
I know it won't be easy to do.
I don't know if I have anything left to share,
And not even sure that I would be able to.
I have been carrying this baggage for so long,
that I don't know if I can leave it behind.
It is now part of me, right or wrong,
I think it will always prey on my mind.
My wounds and scars are painfully deep.
They would be difficult to hide.
And my memories, what do I keep?
Or do I just toss it all aside?
I will have to learn to trust once more.
It would not be fair to judge all the same.
But I don't think I could ever be sure,
and I wouldn't want someone else to take the blame.
How could it ever feel right
to form a bond with someone new?
When I am afraid that I might,
never again know what is really true?
I feel that it may be too late,
that I wouldn't have enough time.
To learn all over again how to relate,
So I would be able to ease my mind.
I don't want to spend the rest of my life alone.
But I don't want to make a mistake.
Wondering if I can face the unknown,
A decision, that only I can make.
