I wonder where my teddy bear ended up
The one
The first one that
Scared away the nightmares
Held my hand in the dark
Fought away my demons
And made me feel safe and secure
I wonder when I lost it, or,
Better yet when I decided I was old enough not to need it
Old enough to fight my own battles and scare my own nightmares away
Because now I am tired
Of this heart aching chest
Of these bruises and scars
Of these terrible nightmares
Of fighting my own battles
I really need my teddy bear now
To love me though my sadness
To hug my thoughts my darkest nights
To cheer me though my battles
And celebrate my victories
I wonder where my teddy bear ended up
The one
Who helped me in my beginnings
To save me from my early ending
