Ian Petch Poet Lyric

Seeking Existence

I’m terrified of winning
I’m scared that I may lose
When wherever I beginning
Is a place that I can’t prove

I walk into this feeling
Like an angel in a storm
As though I am redeeming
The devil in my form

I withheld the honest answers
I shared with you my ghosts
I hurt you all for so long
But I hurt myself the most

I’m terrified of living
I’m scared that I may die
There’s nothing worth forgiving
When I think it’s all a lie

I crawl back into weakness
Like a devil seeking love
And I will swallow every pretence
For the angel climbing up
