Unburdening Nightmares
fear of where the mind can take you is a heavy cross to bear; let it go.

There was once a time I was afraid to dream
Fear of the places my mind would take me overpowered me
Would I return to the treacherous landscapes I've seen?
Could I conceive new monsters to further hurt me?
Or will the ghosts of my cruel past visit me?
Uncertainty of where my mind would go haunted me
The risk of pain was unbearable, to say the least
Through compassion, I found strength
Through my willingness to change, I overcame
Now the hellscapes I once feared mean nothing to me
In my dreams, I see fascinating things
My fear does not own me
