…Guess who…
Fear
The Fear,
It overwhelms me as the source of it approaches.
Hardest I try to escape it,
But it follows, never stumbling.
Driven by sheer will,
I evade it, but it follows still.
Soon I am overtaken,
Defeated.
But, just as quickly,
My fear subsides
And only its creator remains.
As it draws near
Panic grips me.
Escape becomes my only objective.
Hard as I try,
It encases me within its grip.
I am trapped.
Love takes me,
Overwhelms me,
But I no longer hide,
No longer cower and run from it.
I accept it,
Welcome it.
Love overtakes me,
And all is well.
I am alive.
Finally.
