A piece of me that I can’t let go...

I’ve buried myself,
Deep within,
Under layers of fear, away from your sight.
It’s you I run from but I hide from myself...
I thought we were over, I thought we were through
But you’ll haunt me forever, I best make peace with you
You’re a piece of me I can’t let go
You’re a piece of me that I didn’t know.
You taught me to stand on my own two feet
You taught me that I am all that I really need
You taught me the value of what I have
The giggles, the laughter, you gave me all that
I can’t hate you, I can’t forget you.
I can’t regret you and lock you away.
‘Cause you’re a piece of me that I didn’t know
A piece of me that I can’t let go...
