Description:
My description of Fear, and how I see it

Fear

-------------------------------------------

I’m not afraid of the boogieman.
Nor the monster under my bed.
Not the ghouls in the closet,
Or the voices in my head.

Not the killers in the shadows.
Or the stalker waiting on the wings.
Not the whispers in the night,
Or the puppet master with the strings.

I’m the captain of my ship,
the path maker of my own.
I know where I’m sailing,
And I can find my way home.

I’m not getting “woke” to anything.
And your angst is cast aside.
Your narrative is hate.
And your mouth is full of lies.

Welcome to my distortion,
as yours could be the same.
But this is a place for my mind,
no other narrative to frame.

This poem has encouraged me to confront my fears and move through the obstacles instead of around them. Thank you.

this captures my attitude towards fear exactly. i don't know what else to say i fav'd it so i can read it when i want to. i do think it was well written but i don't have much to say except i can relate.
