What do you fear?
What makes you shed a tear?
What is your worst nightmare?
What makes you care?
I fear being stuck in a place,
seconds turn into hours into days.
Before I know it I am one with the place,
giving into the routine of my days.
The mirror looking back with judging eyes.
Crusing through life while time flies,
what happened to the kid's dreams,
remember, we burnt it in the routine flames.
I am falling through the sky,
losing grip on my fantasy,
slipped through my hands, the clarity,
woke up back in reality.
I care because I fear,
the failure, will tear
me apart, the liar
says I am a believer.

The questions asked in the first paragraph are answered in subsequent paras with each para representing the answer to each question. The final paragraph answers the most important question of why do I care, why not just give in to the routine? I care because I fear failure(here the failure for me is leading a life full of routines instead of chasing my dreams) and I fear failure tearing me apart. While all this is happening I also have a liar inside of me who says he believes in me.
