ptsd

it is that life moved on
and people kept on
and again and again
the same wave hit

and now I tremble with it

one day maybe it won't affect
but right now, 
right now
I tremble

each interaction
similar to what scared me
now brings about insecurity

and I'm a grown woman
ashamed that it hurts me
and how it pins me down
with feeling unworthy

one day maybe it won't feel painful
but right now
right now
I live in the cycle

it is that feeling safe
to just love and be loved
is that mountain far in the distance

and I'm not that little girl
begging for it anymore
but at times the clouds role in
and I find myself alone again 

so one day maybe I won't be
but right now,
right now
I'm learning
