What To Fear?

Let me walk by

Pretend I did not see it

Not feel it

Trying to see right through it

It's nothing more than air

The known are what I fear

It's closing in on me

Where to hide?

It’ll take a grip of me soon

So many fears

So many scars

No reconciliation

Nothing more than a fear for life

This time I won’t let it stab me

Sneaking up on me from behind

Pushes me down on my knees

Makes me swallow the juices

Trying to run as fast as my lungs allow me

Heart skipping a beat every each time;

I see you walk by

Family and friends accepts it

Need it as much as air

Except for me

I run for my life

Don't want it to take over me 

Yet falling behind

I can't escape this

I don't want it to harm me once more.

Love is what I run from.

Great write! I loved it. It was expressed so well of the fear on love. I can relate to this because in the past, this was what I tried to ran away from.. sometimes it worked...sometimes it didn't. Though I realized, running away from love hurts even more.. when its just as strong..
This was quite inspiring! I loved it so much. I enjoyed reading it. =D

There is wisdom in the words. Once is a mistake. Twice is a fool's error. Three times. You are a dummy. Good to listen to your common sense. When you are burn by the fire. Don't put your hands into the fire a second time and free the burn again.
'It’ll take a grip of me soon
So many fears
So may scars
No reconciliation "
Thank you for the excellent poem.
