The Poet Sky

Hope

I step into the sunlight Finally free of the clouds I'm no longer suffering I can take a breath of fresh air Now, I can look up at the sky And know that I share her beauty I shed the skin of a man so I can shine with the heart of a woman

Fear follows me Nipping at my heels whispering all the reasons to run away and hide

She has her reasons I know they're valid The world can be cruel I've lived that reality

What has that caution cost me? A lifetime of hiding away of being anyone except me of being lonely and miserable

I'm tired of hiding I'm tired of letting Fear stop me I'm tired of lying to myself No more

Yes, I am afraid Yes, there are reasons to be But I won't let Fear stop me from being me
