A Battle
April 2, 2013
Fear controls you
Manipulates you
Fear to talk
Fear to think
Fear to be
It overthrows you
Sucks you in
Into a black hole
Fear of trying
Fear of breaking
Fear of falling
A monster
In our minds
Not closets
Fear for others
Fear for me
Fear for you
Like a shadow
That never leaves
Fear of rejection
Fear of loneliness
Fear of pain
Knowing darker days
Are still to come
Fear of love
Fear of forgetting
Fear of death
You're losing it,
The battle
Don't be afraid
