in spite of what is heard
there is no reason to be scared
i am just so caught in living
you know how i am dared,
it's true i was violent
the rage i held within
the world helped mold me
i was reckless in the sin,
love was only hoped for
if true i could not see
still at night i dreamed
it would set me free,
so now time is spent
in such lonely contemplation
of my heart and soul
where is their salvation.
