The Fear Inside
The fear inside
Overpowers my body...
My mind...
Like a tornado that's
Storming through a town
Everything I've know...
Dreamed about...
Even felt...
Has been swept up
Only to be destroyed and left as
A distant memory...
Tied at the wrists
By the barbed wire
That once guarded my heart
Now pierces my flesh
Drawing blood...
I'm pulled in different directions
Neither one seeming to lead
To safety...
The fear inside

Takes the breath from my lungs
Keeping me from giving voice
To how I feel
Trapped in this maze
Not knowing the way to go
Wondering where is the light
That used to guide me now...
