HARD TO BURY

 

Across the deepest waters towards the sun
My strength failed me
And forgotten fears appeared again
Aiming to drag me down.

But there are so many others who walk by
They never turn their heads
Never look behind
They just believe in love.

It' s hard for me to bury
Something so scary
That reigns by my side
And makes me weep all night

It' s very hard to bury
Something so scary
And make another life
And see different light.

We stand on shaky bridges towards the sun
Spreading our arms
Through the pleasant sound
Through the life that dies

Tied with wasted ribbons and sickened minds
Those mighty rivers are too wide
And the ribbons will break
Between our neglected lives.

It' s hard for me to bury

(M. Petrak)
