Fear

I tore a page

I shed a tear

I bit my lip

I showed my fear

My eyes hurried

My brow flickered

I wondered if this was me

Was it I who wondered?

He was gone

I grew up strong

I believed that lie.

But he never really left me

After he left.

He lingered on

Under my skin

Grew with me

Or didn’t let me grow?

Now I want to know

Is it him?

Or is it me?
