Fear
“We have nothing to
fear but fear itself”
Although it feels
impossible to kick the fear,
That has bubbled
inside moe for the last 15 years.
The endless thoughts
of being sick,
Was a way I believed
I would always live.
But now it seems I
can finally see,
What this quote
really is telling me.
To break the wall
standing between,
Me and the uneasy
acts us humans need.
To transform my fears
into what I believe
To be a positive and
to relieve,
The pent up stress
within me.
"endless thoughts of being sick" There's lots of fear and energy here. What kind of thoughts? How might you show instead of tell this? We all share this fear, and describing moments of fear or symptoms or even paranoid imagination would be powerful. Maybe this poem presents first anxiety in particular situations and then a new confidence in similar moments?
