The Crippling Fear
For too long I have lived in a confounded state of being
With nothing to lessen the sting of knowing that all toil and gain
Is just the ebb and flow of time
Was it all a lie?
We fail every time we let this fear inside-
Reason given way to overarching pride
Crossing ageless lines
Blind men led the way
We hold to whatever makes us safe
As if truth was all too much to take
We crawl like shadows in the night
The illusion fades with mornings light
We will fail every time we let this fear inside
We must open our hearts to look beyond ourselves
Then we'll understand that all of us can see everything as day
A light to guide the way, a reason for today
Are these the words of God, or reflections of mine?
Will i find that path
Or just circle around
Damned to the unknown?
