Freeze tag
No replays
Keeping truth at bay.
This is a love song, I guess, yes,
Though at first fawn I thought "love bears all things" meant something
Different.
That hook that sends me on flight as a savior into situations
Where I am again a victim
I need to validate this pain and name the stain;
Release the pattern, the familiar [familial] role play
The fatigue of doning combat fatigues
Of denying my body's dossier.
Owning a trauma response, a conditioning
Noticing and becoming present;
Awakening.
