Stranger In Me
Looking like a woman...
thinking like a man...
somewhere inside...
where we all hide...
until courage comes a knockin'
Stand, run, or fight...
trauma was the thief of time...
regurgitated feelings...
familiar territory...
Soul been here before...
I gave it all away...
Memories stagnate my day...
Shield of strength repels me...
I chose to believe...rather than ignore...
Trauma is the strongest link...
To the stranger In Me...
