Someone Hurt Me
Someone hurt me so long ago
I cannot remember who or when;
I carry this weight inside my chest
The hurt won’t go, it always remains;
Everyone's hurt me since then.
The original sin; polluting all
Nothing untouched; nothing unscathed
Yet I cannot remember; I take it on faith
I carry this weight inside my chest; it will not go away
O Mother, O Father, I fear more than I love.
I hide my head each night to forget that which I cannot recall.
This weight in my chest –my guilt; it is not mine.
I’ve carried it so long it can never let go;
I carry it like people carry memories and emotions;
It controls.
Someone hurt me so long ago
I cannot remember who or when;
Abandonment,
Rejection,
FEAR,
Insecurity;
