Today I let myself admit I'm scared <br />and hide in the corner and cower <br /> <br />Today I let myself feel my hurt <br />and go into the darkness to be consumed <br /> <br />Today I let myself say I'm in pain <br />and feel it course fully through me <br /> <br />Today I let myself lower my guard <br />and cried tears long past due <br /> <br />Today I let myself be myself <br />and now there's nothing left from it.<br /><br />Deana Rode<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/2010-today/
