Fear

Holding my breath

Eyes closed

Fear holds me tight

Against the stone wall of the cave

A scraping talon sounds

And reality takes its toll

Death

Fear

And no more hope...

Being here

Being here

Being with you

Holding you

Being your mom

I see your face

I hear giggles

And finally

I know you and me...

The end

The stars smiled upon us

As if they knew we’d soon joined them

I looked up and sighed

And hold her hand in mine

We’ll see it through to the end

We’ll be together until the very end

And the end would come too soon

And too late and not quick enough

And it was now us against the world

And us together as one

And the world in front was bleeding

And waiting on us and invinting

And we’ll see it throug...

Peace

And fire

And my soul

Desire

Skies on fire

Waters too

And I think

I saw a gnou

This is it

I’m in my home

Watching the skies

Rise and fall...

The time of your passing

All led to this instant

Everything sped up so we could be here together

So little time

So many memories

And now time is still

At the ultimate hour

When I lose you

When all stops

Even the time

Even the clock on the wall

Everything stops for the time if you’re passing...

Sweat Sorrows And Hard Doors

Nathalie Core

1 min read

Sweet dreams and hard days

Sweat sorrows on hard ways

In find myself lost at sea

Among a world that cannot be

I wish I could dream it again

Full of joy, empty of pain

But sadly the world is that way

I just need live another day...

You

You walk

You jump

You’re proud as can be

I’m proud of course

I’m proud of you

But I worry

As you grow up

I know already

What you will face

What awaits you

And I worry

That I won’t be enough to protect

That my hands won’t dry your tears

I worry

And I love you...

I Know the song

Nathalie Core

I know why

I have leaned it three hard way

The cage

The song

I know the words

I feel trapped but still I sing

I reach within

And find the will

I want to sing

Otherwise

What’s the point...

Going

You come I go

You smile I cry

When will our paths

Just crois at the right time?

I call you hang up

Still you are around

When will I be able

To connect with you plainly?...

Stop

This is over

This is it

I finally understand

And I put a stop to it

You won’t use me again

I am not a toy to be used

I am finally free

Because I believe in myself at last

I won’t stand for anything less than what I deserve

Finally...
