I Guess It's Been Four Years

I guess it’s been four years. 

And now the aftermath is no longer a fear. 

I remember the danger in ignoring a crisis. 

At the time, it felt as if the people I held dear were senseless. 

I was scared my family would intervene. 

Against my secret plans to let my passion be seen. 

Soon enough, I strayed from my own wishes. 

I didn’t even notice that every step I took was into a busy street of near misses. 

As well as feeling troubled and stricken. 

I was afraid my passion was so strong it could sicken. 

I guess it’s been four years…

And now estranged from the past, I am finally aware!
