Cowardice

Please Comment! :)

Have I sung of being trapped?

Have I sung of running away?

Have I sung of pain and sorrow and loss?

I suppose I have.

But have I sung to you about fear?

Fear is the blackness that can take over your mind,

And your body.

Fear can numb you,

Awaken you,

And take you far away.

Fear can make you cry out 

Or hide away.

But what do you do when,

Your entire life is fear?

When your entire existence,
Is crying out, 

And hiding behind excuses.

Fear is the blackness that can take over your mind,

And your body.

And Fear leads to Cowardice.

Yup, the words are true to the sense with what this poem was written. Nicely done and written with a light hand. Keep up the good work.

Ahh, my life summed up perfectly.

I live with Anxiety Disorder, so I find the smallest things to be scared of. But now after reading this I feel like I really need to sit down and think about why Im so scared of these things and how to quash my demons. Thank you for providing a light out. :)
