Let's face it
You are scared.

Of what, I know not
But you're scared,
I see it.
It's why you do
The things you do
Why all of this
Just happens.

Deny it all you want.
It doesn't hide the truth.
Every moment
Of every day
Scared.

And there's nothing
Wrong with that.
I'm scared to death too.
Why are you?

Some get loud
Some get quiet
Some lash out
Some draw in
Your fear is a driver
And I don't know
What to do.

I'm tied up
I want to
Take away your fear
And keep it there too
Because fear can be good
And fear can be smart.

I know you are scared.
There's (and I hate this)
Nothing
I can do.

Yo. Me? I'm a professional Metaphor Creator - aka taking two things and sticking them together with determination and lots of glue to make a sandwich. (That's pretty much how I write, too. But hey, sandwiches are great, aren't they? Even if you have to look at the base idea of it.) Also known as a Thinker, Dreamer, Sleeper, and/or TalksTooMucher.

Windows

Your mouth can hide behind a smile, Your voice behind a laugh, Your scars can hide behind cloth and ignorance, But how can you disguise your eyes.

On The Wings Of Shared Humanity

Sit down and ponder with me life's small and weighty matters. Does the death of a man or beast or flea leave an angels heart in tatters. What if I were to tell you my deepest darkest fears.

Subtle Oblivion

A human mind, a cursed thing, is so defined by gifts it can bring. A lonely thought. A solemn word so scarcely bought and never heard. It lives inside and slowly fades with every lie.

Insecurity

I ask of you only to conceal my rage, a task so simple, for the world is not a stage. I ask that my pride be served to a lesser degree, for the sight from my eyes, is for my eyes only to see.

I Want.

I want to see what I look like through other peoples eyes. I want to see if they can see what lies beneath. I want to see if they can see what I'm hiding.

To Be Yours.

I don't know where I come from, I don't know where I'll go. I don't know when the sun will come, When the winds lunge to and fro. I don't know how to tell your tale, I truly wish I could.
