When Fear Talks

....

By Harydo NeonPublished about a year ago 1 min read

I am back from my long journey, knock knock

Since when do you keep your doors locked?

Are you listening? Or still sleeping? Come and open up

This is also my house, I live here with all my stuff

When we got the contract, I provided the pen

I am the one on whom your emotions depend

I am the only one there with you at the deep end

Anxiety was tough on you, I was the sweet end

Is it beautiful?

Life, taking a different turn

Stars, becoming bright again

Hearing birds performing a concert

Darkness becoming light

Exhaustion becoming Willpower

Out of the blues, light of hope

You hardly remember one of those days

All the times you spent in the abyss we both created

Protecting yourself from everyone we know never related

Love from people, something we never accepted

We went to bed for sure ,but we never rested

I know I was toxic but I am the reason you didn't try the meds out

I almost watched you leave the earth when you almost knifed out

Suddenly you kicking me out, contract termination without a pay out

You had Hope take over my room, you think she can help out?

I am the only one who knows how you feel when your house quakes

I am the only one who knows when you are falling for baits

I am the one making you put less of yourself out there when you rage

I am not a chapter, I'm in every page

You can't get better with me but you can't get worse

I am not leaving, I am camping on the porch

This is just a momentary clause

You're going to need me again and i'll answer when you call

I drain my thoughts through my pen. That's the only way I breathe.
