You Knew, Didn'T You

You knew somedy I would return
But that first I must learn
Not all men are unkind
But some would seek my wounds to bind

You knew that I would always flee
Until my darkness I set free
Only then would I behold
The sun's warm rays are just like gold

I must still admit a trace of fear
If you hold me will it disappear?
If I do give you my heart
Promise to never tear it apart.
