No matter what I do or how I try, they remain, my fears. |
-Alone Are My Fears- by Keaton Foster In them No one shares Alone are my fears They are as real As any can be Created by me Kept alive By the same As good as it is As bad as it seems No matter the space No matter the time They are still there My closest of friends They won’t fail They won’t let me go They are holding on Their claws are sunk deep No matter what Through all the ups And every damn down Continually They remain Staying true They let me know Remind me daily Of who I am Even if and when I’m trying to be Anything but me Alone are my fears No one loves them No one needs them No one wishes for them But they are there Are sure anything else They are the foundation That every mountain Has ever been built upon They are the core of my soul The heart of every matter In time I know they’ll kill me In time they’ll cause my end By these hands Of through these ideas They will ultimately win Claiming me for themselves And the darkness they serve Alone are my fears I wish it could be different But certainly it can not As good as life seems As much as I wanna dream There are always nightmares Rattling around in my head Hiding inside my chest Waiting to remind me Wanting to set me in my place Always it seems that I Have been meant to pay Someday I will… Alone Are My Fears Written by Keaton Foster Copyright © 2015. |
