In the Wake of Fear

In the Wake of Fear

A Poem by J.Michele

I’m afraid

The tears

That I hold so dearly

Will break me

 

I’m afraid

If I cry

I will not stop

 

I’m afraid

If I let just one person

Within

They will crumble

My self-built wall

 

I’m afraid

That someone will

Hurt me

In ways that mere words

Could never explain

 

I’m afraid

Of love

Of hate

Of Everything

 

I’m afraid

If I feel

The emotions will

Kill me

 

I was afraid

But then came

The light

 

Of golden purity

That ignited

The flames in

My bonfire heart

Thank you very much Brooke :)
The ending, I did enjoy a quite chuckle. What a beautiful write you have created. It is true that love can break us, however maybe it can also be said that it can also shape us into the person misunderstood paths will takes us. Inspiring and through provoking. Well done.
