Fear Poem
Uneased slave of destiny
...alarmed about the inevitable
Events consume my dreaded energy
...fear's my miserable companion
Life without control of reality
...a soul in total denial
The realization of fearfulness taunts
...as panic brazenly flaunts
Distressed heart pumps against the chest
...the uneasiness of the emotions besets
Phobia about where it will lead
...complicates the panicking feed
An escape route's desperately sought
...away from that unfruitful monster of dread
A desire for peace, joy and tranquility
...in an atmosphere of frightened civility
Shyness about rewarding decisions
...an oasis' welcomely envisioned
A place of forgotten timidities
...where fear stands outside its boundaries
