Fear
March 29, 2022
Fear is like walking into blackness
The unknown worries of life,
Public speaking, losing people,
Scopophobia.
Like an everlasting shadow,
Meeting new people, talking to others,
Lepidopterophobia.
Fear can push us to the best of ourselves,
Failure, imperfection,
Athazagotaphobia.
Fear is like an enormous weight pulling you down,
Drowning, sinking,
Atychiphobia.
Fear is like a horrifying instinct of sickness,
Overwhelming, staggering,
Anxiety.
