Fear

Oh fear, Oh fear, how I praise you.

You were there when I've made mistakes.

Pushed me to keep going when I have thought of giving up.

Pushed me to become limitless when I have reached my limits.

 

But where have you gone?

You disappeared on me when my life has hit a crossroad.

I need you, but you are nowhere to be found.

I am empty of motivation.

I've lost sight of my goals.

Am I lost?

Is this the end?

 

I realize now, you left me.

Left me to decide my life.

With this freedom, I feel it is too much.

I feel doubt- doubt in myself.

Have you transformed? Masked behind doubt?

 

I won't let this stop me.

Even though you are gone,

I remind myself of the lessons you have taught me.

My hard work continues regardless of your presence.

I will not fail in life, and it is because of you.
