FEAR

 

Can you hear it, that sound

Ticking, tacking, thwacking,

I hear it in the other room.

It’s in there, its knuckles cracking.

 

Just two feet away…

Through the door, through the gate,

I’m paralyzed, when I’m in this state.

Where I just can’t move, nor make my mind shake,

These thoughts, I can see the shadows glisten,

There’s a feeling of something evil, its there…

Just beyond my vision.

 

Reality…

It leaks from my veins, it keeps us on track.

A lifetime of fear, in the dark, in the black,

Try as I might, I just can’t stay on track.

My mind blurs, my sight aches, I feel sorrow,

It’s something we will have to combat…

Tomorrow.

 

Psycho-morph-ism…

Death please come for me now, I feel sick,

Nauseous or perhaps just ill, my skin feels slick,

Come closer, help me; too late, it was just a trick.

God help me, I might be losing my mind.

My fears mirror my dreams…

This thing lives in my third eye.

 

Eerie black…

Gloom flows before me, yet the shadows part

A light comes in; it holds the dark apart,

For the first time, I feel pain at the start.

Mystery bells, a chiming sound?

No, it’s that ticking again, yes…

There around.

 

Everything; Nothing…

My blood, my body, my fears.

Soak your mind-sweat, cry me more tears.

Close your eyes, there not gone, they are here.

Now...

Open you blood.

Feel what I’ve felt.

My, your, fears.
