What is fear

 

What is fear?

 

Is it the shadow of the night

can it twist and blind your sight

does it linger when we have fun

is it in the hands of the one with a gun

right before the bullet hits his eye

or is it the fact you couldn't save him

watching his eyes grow dim

I wonder about fear sometimes, or is it what we allow ourselves to be afraid of... your poem brought this to mind... thank you for sharing Debileah
