Taunting to rule
the fear still lingers in the background
tauntingly reminding you what was there
with the mental and physical scars
...fear still taunting to rule
the slightest memory of an event
will open the forgotten memory banks
stiffening your nerves opening your senses
...fear still taunting to rule
the hairs on the back of the neck are wound up
and you pull and twist at your hair
the thoughts and memory of it still mars
...fear still taunting to rule
trying to forget is good for a difficult dent
and is working because you give thanks to friends
who help mending your fences
...fear still taunting to rule
