Teddy Bear

His name was teddy,
I held him close as a child,
He was my comfort bear, 
Been with me through all of the abuse,
He went to school with me,
But as I got older,
It was getting harder to keep him,
He carried all of my childhood trauma,
So many bad memories,
he was there when I was scared,
I had to let him go,
The pain he carried was to much,
The memories he held was painful ones,
He was a constant reminder of the pain I had felt as a child, 
I'm sorry teddy but I had to let you go, 
I needed to heal...
