6.18.18

This fear
Waiting for him to come back for me
To come back for more
Sits within me
And won't let me breathe

This fear
That he waits for me to walk
To come across his path
To sit with him and talk
Holds me captive

This fear
Sits within my mind
And whispers in my ear
Words nobody else can hear
It takes hold of my thoughts

This fear
Shakes my world
Like thunder after the lightning
And wakes the sound in my voice
Screaming, pleading

This fear
Holds me captive in the worst ways
Keeping my mind in its grip
Refusing to let me heal
So try and tell me it's not real
