a poem I wrote for a very good friend
Nothing to counter my fear
Time stretches, tears me apart
This suffocating pressure won't leave my heart
The songs that remind me
These feelings that bind me
My emotions that flow
refuse to freeze with the snow
Paralyzed like the flowers in ice
They grip my heart, crush it like a vice.
Make me want to weep
To fall prey to eternal sleep
The tears I cry
Fill the bed of the river that ran dry
But now it's alive again
The world of light and dark where you now reign
The winds to take away my sorrow
Won't be back until tomorrow
Though 'tis only hope I own
So I hope they will come.
On your wings of light
You heal with your flight
The power to ease my sorrows
Is only yours to bestow.
Don't do this to me
It causes so much you can't see
Struggling on in my fight
Not released 'til the fall of night
The prison of fear
When you're not here
Is where I dwell
With feelings that are fell
Anger I should not feel
Pain that is too real
Waiting for the disease
To make me freeze, to make me cease
Waiting for night
When all will be right
When your light will pierce these walls
Penetrating the black halls
Break down this fortress of distress
Blow apart the bars of this prison
Come to me my eternal sun
Let us leave, be on the run
'Til one day it's only you I can feel
When you will finally be all real
More real than we could ever feel
The day that I see you here
Your light will flood my fortress of tears

Pierce My Prison
There's nothing hereNothing to counter my fear
Time stretches, tears me apart
This suffocating pressure won't leave my heart
The songs that remind me
These feelings that bind me
My emotions that flow
refuse to freeze with the snow
Paralyzed like the flowers in ice
They grip my heart, crush it like a vice.
Make me want to weep
To fall prey to eternal sleep
The tears I cry
Fill the bed of the river that ran dry
But now it's alive again
The world of light and dark where you now reign
The winds to take away my sorrow
Won't be back until tomorrow
Though 'tis only hope I own
So I hope they will come.
On your wings of light
You heal with your flight
The power to ease my sorrows
Is only yours to bestow.
Don't do this to me
It causes so much you can't see
Struggling on in my fight
Not released 'til the fall of night
The prison of fear
When you're not here
Is where I dwell
With feelings that are fell
Anger I should not feel
Pain that is too real
Waiting for the disease
To make me freeze, to make me cease
Waiting for night
When all will be right
When your light will pierce these walls
Penetrating the black halls
Break down this fortress of distress
Blow apart the bars of this prison
Come to me my eternal sun
Let us leave, be on the run
'Til one day it's only you I can feel
When you will finally be all real
More real than we could ever feel
The day that I see you here
Your light will flood my fortress of tears
