I fear...

I fear the dark

I fear to be alone

I fear wild animals

I fear to fail

I fear disappointment

I fear to love

I fear spiders

I fear joy

I fear  what I do not know

I fear choices

I fear losing

I fear change

I fear pain

I fear my own thoughts

I fear my own actions

I fear getting sick

I fear my own heart

I fear so many damn things…

But I will never fear when my time is up.

Because in the end, why fear being set free?

Author's Note

This was a really random feeling and I don’t exactly agree with my last line exactly, but I do believe there is no reason to fear death.

[Ezekiel Silver]

Very dark and meaningful. I like how simple this poem is. Makes it easier to understand for some people.
