"I'm scared,"
"Don't be," He said
He took my hand
And behind me I left the life I had known
I followed fearfully
Squeezing that warm hand so tightly
Wanting to let go and run back
But never wanting to leave his presence
I stayed close
And slowly my fear began to dissipate
I saw a new world, one without pain
and darkness, sadness, or scars
One without hate
