Haunts me like a nightmare,
Exploiting all my happiness,
Leaving me without a care,
And into a mess.
F E A R
Tears up my inside,
As if it had claws,
Stringing me along for the ride,
As it's words and emotions continue to gnaw.
F E A R
Get away from me,
I want your departure,
Get out of where my eyes can see,
Quit increasing and making it harder.
F E A R
Always taking what is mine,
It's all I know,
A creeping feeling down my spine,
But I won't let it show.
F E A R
It's constant and firm,
It's never-ending,
It's always causing me some type of harm,
And won't leave to let me do some mending.
F E A R
I feel it very often,
I threw it far away,
And yet it comes back,
Announcing its stay.
F E A R
Has made me scared to love,
In thought that it'll hurt me too,
It has made me terrified to be as gentle as a dove,
Whenever it comes to you.
F E A R
Ate up all of my apologies,
Ate up all my tears,
Destroyed my gentle and calm seas,
Always hanging near.
F E A R
Made me scared to be happy-
To show how I feel,
Made me mortified when I was sappy,
And wanted nothing more than for me to kneel.
B U T
When I'm with you,
Fear cannot reach me,
In your arms I feel protected,
I just wish you could see.
Take these words,
And see them as your own,
Because these are for you,
And you, alone.
