Fear

I don’t fear rage, wrath, or consequence I travel on unbothered my failures and disappointments I go on untouched by opinion Living in my own dominion I love the noise The chaos The earth braking intensity I’ve been blessed to see the world in I don’t fear pain or injury whether it be emotional or physically I fear no man, no malicious plan, no wicked destiny I don’t even fear hate…in fact I love that too I love it when they try and tear me down, after all haters need love too I don’t fear my end, my demise For every triumph and failure, every pat on the back and every slap in the face lets me know I’m awake and living another day No monster, lion, tiger, no bear, no demon, no devil, could ever cause me fear! But I am not fearless…I am no heroine My fear comes when the wind stops When whispers can no longer be heard seeping throw thin walls When the yelling, the yelps, and the laughter seems to cease I fear somber silent days and nights filled with the living but lacking life. I fear the day I cease to live while still living Were I can offer no more to the chaos, the noise, the catastrophe that makes us all WANT to move and breathe I just fear the silence
