Embrace The Fear

by Cody Binford
(Sacramento, CA)

Anger is seething, my hatred abound,
Feeling so lost, when will I be found,
I just want to drown, rather than live,
My darkness inside, only pain to give,
I try to forgive you, an impossible task,
I am done hiding, removing the mask,
You try to ask, ears deaf to your voice,
My trembling hands, stripped of choice,
No time to rejoice, for the end is near,
Soul wandering lost, embrace the fear.
