Put it out there in light speed
Vulnerabilities just did a head spin
Until it holds
I have to try and find the missing piece
But I have to integrate these parts
They need to come out of their hiding
Out is our best chance
They are guaranteed a space within again
Just boxed in a special way
Found an Ally
It feels safe to walk alongside
Buried under some pieces of fragile innocence
Is dark shades
Hacked
Preyed by preyed
And filled with murky bits
Extracted
It glows like an alien
I am here to instal a glass door
More paths to the cave
Coming and easing out of pain
Talking to it and understanding this fame
The ally holds on stronger
It’s aura grows as we get closer
It’s intent and grit to walk with me to my pain
It can lend its strength
Getting used to testing the vulnerability
Assured I am that the ally will come
Again and again and again,
It will never refuse to walk with me
Because the ally and the cave
The child, the alien
All lives in me
