Fear

Fear Jumped off the cliff
It landed in the river
Covered in all the mist
Fear tried to drown
Muscles started work
They took fear forward
Helped by all the force
The current moved onward.

Fear tried to hold a rock
The current made it go
Fear tried to swim away
Yet it went with the flow.

Fear was moving on
of being fear itself
Fear was writing songs
about all that unsaid.

Fear was popping out
of its little closet
Fear was bred at home
as away it was lead.

Fear was smothered
by the blue corset
Fear was writing home
with news of no bread.

Fear was a waking dream
or a sleep nightmare
Fear was unwritten words
and those things unsaid.

Fear was moving in
as out it slowly swept
Fear was clutching on
at the loss of its grip.

Memory faded
as life caught on.
Fear was invaded
as it finished the song.
