Greatest Fear!!
Oh!
This struck me again! Why would it bother me so much?
Frightened
pupils narrowed slowly, pounding heart in its clutch,
Sweat
rolling down to freedom, breath bulging out to blast,
Random
thoughts haunting; salvation to come fast -
Is it
death that I fear? I knew it was to come,
May be
that is ultimatum to some,
Is it
pain that I fear? I know it will vanish,
May be
pain was just life in anguish,
Is it
failure that I fear? Oh! We face that every day,
May be
success fears failure, not me, I say,
Is it
loneliness that I fear? No, I was born alone,
It
brightens my soul to set my life atone
Is it
memories that I fear? Why so I run away from it?
It
brings me down to where I am waiting to lit,
Memories
it is, haunting my soul beneath,
Memories
it is, love left it as bequeath.
