These words i put down on paper
Have swirled through my mind like vapor
Churning through my thoughts all twisted
Until my minds eye was foggy and misted
So now i try to feel my way
Across a landscape that shifts everyday
Help me to see, please help me get free
Of my tangled feelings mixed up in me
Robert Fox Aug 2013
When my hope is gone
Like my favorite song
And the night draws to its end
I see a light so cold and bright
As it creeps over the land to write
Its name in plain sight
Of the world just waking
But i can feel the earth quaking
Under the feet of history making
Its daily rounds of toll taking
This has to stop, we have to fight
For the prize of unending night
Then no longer will we fear the light
Instead we can stay together
Forevermore suspended as a feather
In time not falling
Rather listening to it calling
Never again parting ways
We will never face the fall of days
Stay free
Don't ever be
Afraid of the dark
For it is the spark
Of a new dawn
Time moving on

“Anxiety”

Hell awaits seething
As flames flow bleeding
Through my fingers burning
The tears in yearning
Shed in payment red
For my shadows dead
All they sought was redemption
For falling to temptation
Never stopping to think straight
Judgment I laid down on their fate  
Only to find the light
Was always in the right
Again I have fallen prey
To everything the voices say
Anxiety...Anxiety
Its all I can hear
...
Next all I can see
....
I'm sinking beneath
.....
The weight of this sheet
......
Being pulled over my face
.......
Now I share with them their fate

Let me tell you about a boy
Who developed a brilliant ploy

To bend the mind
And befuddle the soul

So he would not be alone
Sinking sinking, as a stone

Thrown from his own hand
Yet never to reach dry land

For he was not good enough
Never could he be so tough

As he was natures friend
To the very bitterest end

But his nature betrayed him then
While he sought to send

Letters long with words so strong
That none could lift them save through song

If i ever say goodbye
While we are standing face to face
Just know you should cry
As never again will i chase you
Through the sky so high

I will fall through the hall
For my world is tipped on its side
And i tumble and call
In my quietest voices I try to hide
From the people of my life so small

What if I leave and die
Will you fall out of the sky
If I never said goodbye

Swim against the rising sun
Learn to live a life of fun

Dont go bad
Because youll just go mad

With all the pain
So then whats left to gain

Save fear and doubt
Just take them out

Let them die
And try not to lie

As i have cried
And nearly died

From pain caused by you
With all that you do

A freak with a gift
The beast able to lift
The very sky
And hold it high
But no one sees
No one heeds
Its whimpers of pain
They only want to gain
Control of a monster
Who tries to say he lost her
His beauty and love
When he reached up above
To help all of you
He lost her too
Now he is alone
Frozen to the bone
With fear and doubt
Unable to shout
That he needs his life
His love his wife
The only one who never screamed
But looked up and beamed
At this monster so strong
Who no one had loved for so long

So run and hide
Any who seek to guide
This giant will
Let loose and ****
Anyone between him
And his most precious gem
You wont be cut
Or clawed and shut
In a coffin cold
Filled with mold
He needs no weapon save his eyes
For they will pierce through your lies
Laying bare your soul
Leaving just a gaping hole

You will die, you will fade
But he cannot, for there will always be shade
