Fear has been there since the beginning It has seen the rise and fall of mankind Fear is all some people know Yet some people claim not to have it Fear is a complicated emotion It can stem from trauma Or even for no reason at all Fear makes us feel unbelievably weak But also makes us massively stronger Fear has many forms And also many reasons Fear can be in the form of something simple But the strongest form is of the unknown

Fear
When war came so close The rivers of the cities rose With the colour shifting to crimson And the spirits of deceased had arisen Their revengeful agonising groans Sent deep shivers through your bones When war comes so near And the love we hold dear Scatters away into nothing Leaving the people still clutching The last shred of peace As the joy and laughter ceases When war will approach nearby And the loss of a lovers sighs Will become so apparent And the longing to not feel transparent Takes over the soul As the loss takes a great toll

When war came so close
A feeling of uselessness A feeling of worthlessness A sense of unease A deep fear of the unknown A deep and complicated feeling of distress A longing for something more, something real The need to protect that makes us truly human Desiring a deep connection with a lover A promise never fulfilled and a love that's over

Unknown
Inviting the feel of the cold winter's breath Yet shunning it when it pays a visit Feeling excited for the summer holidays Just to stay inside and complain about the heat Begging for love deep in our hearts Just to not realise when it's here Never realising something's true worth Until that thing has truly disappeared A lustful view of other human beings Yet a desire for them to not return the favour Breaking their vows just to hope for forgiveness A lover in agony and their partner ecstatic The human race is deep and complicated Some love, some hate Some leave and some wait

Complicated Emotions
An intense fear of death Yet a burning hatred of life A life of yearning for a lover's breath For which we struggle and writhe An inherent distaste for pain But a cruel need to deal so to others We try to stay calm yet struggle in vain And refuse to rely on our sweet mothers Silence can comfort but also destroy Noise can be a comfort of sorts Life can be full of love and joy And can also be very short
