I take the key to all my pain and lock it in the vault
Hoping it will somehow hide that this was all my fault
But I cannot escape my guilt, the key won’t disappear
It whispers deep within the vault, the message loud and clear:
“Open up your eyes, girl, please wipe away these streams
You can not forget him; he will suffocate your dreams”
But in my desperation I begin to runaway
Hoping that each step I take will bury yesterday
But as I run from all these things, the key, the vault, and you
I’m only rediscovering; I’ve brought you with me, too.

Annie Shadow,

This powerful stuff! I hope in facing these lines of poetry, the things you have been running from are now beginning to become surmountable: -

'But as I run from all these things, the key, the vault, and you
I’m only rediscovering; I’ve brought you with me, too.'

Best wishes!
Jon
