Journey Through Fear

Sense of protest under skies Of inner silence; external lies I seek protection from within But still I have to leave my skin No more spirit in this life The more I travel, the less I like A mortal sickness eating love Too blind to witness the things above Inward vision appearing weak More outer strength is all they seek Destiny and fate entwined I fall to question what’s in my mind Sensing darkness in disguise An inner noise that lacks the light In desperation I now fade Another victim of dying days No more breathing for better things Only acceptance and fitting in My nightmares seep into the earth I have no power, and no true worth A dream of falling into skies I am the silent - a wraith in flight The world I see behind me lost I wake to protest what I have caught I asked a question, it opened doors Experienced the fear we’re taught I am wakeful, it’s all I need More understanding is what I seek
