Pieces of me

Pieces of me
I keep finding
In the most unusual places
Pieces of me that are leaving
that I thought I needed
to protect me
keep me safe
I no longer need

Pieces of me
within me
I buried long ago
with fear
that creeped into my sleep at night
became nightmares from past times
slowly moving out of me
letting me
let the past go

I still don't sleep a full nights sleep
I still sometimes not sleep at all
But there are new pieces of me
I never knew were there
but feel familiar
and don't make me feel so small

These pieces are new to me
and are giving me
something new
Pieces of me that I call hope
that let me start to dream again
that give me courage
to be me
