My Fear
What is that vile smell?
What is that metallic taste?
It's broken glass and blood in my head.
I haven't a moment to waste.
Why is that shadow in the corner?
Why does it stare through my eyes?
My whole body feels like pins and needles.
All my meanings feel like lies.
How do i stand alone here?
How do i clot the bleed?
I feel like i could run away now.
but the demon, i wish not to feed.
What will it take to kill you?
What will i do when your near?
I will reach in and tear your heart out.
That's how i'll conquer my Fear.
