Fear II

The unknown
Is never as bad as
Reality

I’ve just realised this poem is the complete opposite of what I was actually trying to say so I have penned a new one called Fear III!

Remnants

Snatched
Glimpses and
Remnants
Times past,
Floating in and out of consciousness,
Some uncomfortable,
Some bad,
Some horrific,
Leaving confusion,
A lump in the throat,
Unable to swallow,
Knowing not yet to what they relate,
Just a
Feeling of
Cold,
Sickening,
Clammy,
Fear.

Sweet Sorrow

Parting is such sweet sorrow,
Reeling with joy
From precious moments shared;
Then sadness at being apart,
Pangs of unhappiness,
Spasms of loneliness,
All the more acute,
When preceded by such
Exquisiteness.

Safe

Remember God loves you.
He has your back.
You are safe.
Praise be.

Straight Ahead

When you believe in yourself,
Toxic words of others
Wash off
Like water off a duck’s back,
So hold your head up high,
Be true to yourself,
And don’t be swayed
By others’ pettiness, jealousy and spite,
For that is their chosen stony path in life,
And you have yours.

Tar

People tar you,
Throw their beef at you,
Call you names,
And undermine you.
You can put their skin on,
Walk around reeking of their ****,
Or you can take it off,
Shine bright,
And be the person you’re meant to be.

Now,
Which do you choose?

Hold Fast

The trials and tribulations you go through
Are testament to who you are
And the strength in you,
For you will never be tested beyond your means,
So hold fast to your values,
To your dreams and desires,
And show them who’s wrong
And who’s right.
