Nothing to Fear | October 2009 | Copyright 2009

11/01/2009

My heart has been running marathons
While the rest of me is fast asleep
It wakes me up at 2 a.m.
And tells my brain to be afraid

Sometimes during the day, for fun
My heart will send signals of danger
Even though there is nothing to fear
Except the sunshine and the flowers

The flowers have never hurt me before
I’m not sure why they would start now
Perhaps they’ve been holding a grudge
For all my childhood plucking

The crows are so noisy today
I’ve been listening to their message for years
I know that it will all be given
And it will all be taken away
