Best Sympathyfear Poems


Alone

Why do you carry an umbrella,
On such a sunny day?
To prepare for the rain,
Of tears you know will come?
Why do you choose to walk alone,
When so many wish to take you by the hand?
Do you fear their tears,
Will drench you with your own?
Listen to the lone footsteps
As they echo.
Why do you walk alone 
When so many wish to guide you?
Do you fear the echo of another’s steps will cease?
Take my hand,
And never will your hand be empty.
Never will your footsteps be alone.
I will bring you into my world,
So you will never fear,
Of another’s hope,
Of another’s love,
Come into my world,
And you’ll never again,
Have to be alone.

Remember the Days

I’m young but I remember the days
The days with no worries
The days full of love and happiness
The days of complete admiration
The days when my only fear was the dark
The days when parents were my relief from fear
The days when a bouncy ball pleased me
The days when lullabies carried me to my dreams
The days when stress didn’t exist
The days as a child
The days you forgot
You’re old now
You have worries
You days are almost loveless
You fear every thing 
You have no one to turn to
You sleep to thoughts of bills
You wake to thoughts of stress
You live wishing time could rewind
