they still come back from time to time I hear their calling it's hard to push them away, to ignore their pain and yet they suffocate me when I look away, they come back when I say no, they come for more when I try to understand, they hush me down I love them but they scare me I understand them but they don't let me I want to show them but they don't want to see I want to heal them but they stop me every time I have to leave them but they need me I want to set them free but they are the ones who have the key I'm tired of this imprisonment yet only I have the key, only I can set myself free
