Fear

Fear is a strong feeling for me, an emotion I despise It is sometimes debilitating to me at times, I have surmised Spiders, heights, creepy crawly bugs, diseases I may get I am fearful of failure, not giving my all, having regrets I fear being alone, dying alone, wasting away in a nursing home I fear the afterlife and ponder if I will go to another realm to roam 2/10/19 Submitted on 5/27/19 for the Truth Poetry Contest, sponsored by Anthony Slausin.

I'm sorry it is a strong feeling for you, Tania. I never really felt it until the time I got cancer. Now I fear it returning but one has to just try to think positive and realize that what is beyond this realm is even better than all the suffering we have on earth. Good poem.
