Version of You

Hello, scared and helpless child
I know it's been quite a while
I'm here because I know your pain
You can't escape what you still contain
It's always in your most lonely moments
When you're feeling lost and wholly hopeless
You come to meet the one who saved you
The heart that held the pain that made you
Who you are
More than scars

You did only what you knew to do
What didn't kill you still pierced through
You held the shield that hurts to hold
Bought some safety with a bit of your soul
Right now it feels like the end is near
But one day this path will look so clear
And there's one thing that will always be true
You're the only one who gets to be the version of you
That survived
You're alive 
And you're so damn strong
