My heart is heavy with tenderness
Tipped full to its brim
With thoughts so filled with gentleness
 Soft as the sun’s
first beam
The unuttered hope that seeds within
Blossoms I cherish sweetly
Gives me courage to finally begin 
A babe’s steps still wobbly 
Too many doors have I closed before
All in the name of fear
Tracing scars from departed sores
Chasing apparitions that appear 
Thus today I cut the leading-strings
That tied me to that past
From here I’ll take what tomorrow brings
And hope my courage will last.
