A Decieving Fear

Pain, Loss, Compassion are a few.
Feelings bound up tight.
Knowledge, Understanding, Acceptance.
Things I know are right.

Keep the tides in check.
The ever growing wall of fear.
Hold down the powers on deck.
Tightening its overbearing grasp.

It's there in the distance.
A faint tinkling you hear.
Just noticing its existence.
It's just ask quickly blocked out.

Flooding over your entire being.
All previous awareness snuffed out.
The sense of time is fleeing.
You can no longer hear the shout.

Welling up inside of you.
Tension has wound up every muscle.
Anger, frustration, and fear are a few.
Feelings that are now presiding in you.

The grasp of fear itself works on.
Building up the resistance of hearing.
That the lies love to feed upon.
Believing in the fear now growing.

It winds and weaves through and through.
Until it's now fully apart of you.
Dark, foreboding fear is now the only view.
Of the inner workings now seen.

There it is again.
A faint tinkling is breaking the silence.
Shedding light on this sin.
That's taken root inside.

The sound of shattering glass.
A noise so deafeningly loud.
The sound of truth outlasts.
The shrills of the lies being uprooted.

Relief, joy and truth are a few.
Feelings now rooted inside.
Finally realizing what is true.
Happiness can now reside.
