fear of fear....

Fearing the unknown

letting it control you

as it manifests itself

more inside your heart

mind and body.

It's ruling you

ever thought

and decision

you make.

Making you more

paralyzed with every

moment.

Even in your dreams

If you get any sleep...

He is showing himself

and casting a dark

shadow over you.

You are living in fear

of fear itself...

That's a very pertinent read. And you are right. Most times, its not fear. Its the fear of fear that burns inside. Good one.

Dawn - you are very perceptive. If we allow fear to overwhelm us we become
stagnant and are incapable of doing anything.
Thank you for your thoughtful poetry. - Dave

So very true my friend. This is a well-written and thought out poem. Insightful and analytical lines. Verses are minimalist but impactful. Fear is a cruel taskmaster and you have made this point excellently Dawn. Brava.
