Who’s That? Is that someone behind you? Or just the wind that’s blowing through? Where those steps you heard just then? Or a whispering moan of when? Who’ll be there to hear you cry? Or hold you tight and feel your sigh There’s no one who can give aid You’re in a trap that fear has made Is there someone waiting for you? In the dark you feel its true What is the fear that knows your name? Will it drive you quite insane? Is there a chance you’ll break the chain? Or you won’t feel stabbing pain? There’s no one there to hear you call Or to catch you when you fall Is there someone standing near you? In the shadow shaded blue Where will you hide when they come back? Will you find the spine you lack Can you hear the whispering still? Does it give your heart a chill? There’s no chance you’ll ever be free You’re held by fear constantly Marsha Magnus darling boy I said I’d write something in response to you Nevermore series, this is for giving me chills You know I love them really. Breathe through the heat of our desire |

There’s no chance you’ll ever be free You’re held by fear constantly This sums it up nicely, Marsha...and its absolutely true... a beautiful write. ~ hugs of freedom from fear Lyra |
