Fear

It is fear that I’m now after Awaiting in silence... awaiting its unnatural embrace Too afraid perhaps to finally bother This one excitement for a triggering chase Why are there so much in life to fear? Alike all thoughts and reasons... its simply a choice Are we all afraid to let go that which dears? Or perhaps our mirroring selves are the perfect decoys Yet it puzzles me... whence to accept Fear which I seek, I can no longer feel My mirrored existence, simply a shadow met Knowing nothing more can ever be as real We do not dare enter our own illusion As humans... perhaps we have too much of assumptions Why not draft anew, an unseen perception? Than fool ourselves in our very own deceptions Somehow... it becomes harder to feel hereafter Lost and in dire, shadows darkening to chase My silence spats fear no longer Is there not a time I’m to remember its unnatural embrace? Inspired by Will Smith in the movie After Earth
