Fight Your Fear

God I hate fear, 
It's such a pain,
It makes your decisions, 
Again and again. 

It's worse then my mum, 
It can't be ignored, 
It strikes any time, 
Yet its reasons are floored. 

It gets in the way, 
Of things that matter, 
And if you give in, 
Your life will shatter. 

So when it comes up, 
You should fully embrace it, 
Cause it always shuts up...
When you turn round and face it!

Great write Will, welcome to PS and trust you'll like it here, there are many good friends here. This is a fine write, with lovely rhyme and flow, I know what you mean about fear as having had a stammer all my life so the fear of words is my great fear. Have a blessed day, Gordon
