I am NOT afraid of you

I am NOT afraid of you

A Poem by Marlena

i'm not afraid of you

I'm not afraid

I can be alone

and I can be a freak

I am not afraid of you

I am not afraid

I can see you in my eyes

I can see the blood on the ground

I can feel this life of mine

and I am not afraid of you

I am not afraid

I can hear that voice

and I can be alone

I can have my thoughts and I can be alone

I am not afraid of you,

I am not afraid.

I won't have you standing there

you won't be there anymore

because I am not afraid of you

I am not afraid.

I can hurt this bad

and I can break this heart of mine

and I won't have to feel this fear for you anymore

so I won't be afraid of you

I won't be afraid.

Wow, normally when a poem repeats a line that much the line can get stale, but you've got a wonderful way of using repetition. I love it. :)

Very powerful, and straight to the point. Its awesome.

I think it is a therapeutic piece. I think you did a very fine job of putting it together with honest, and true emotion. We often have to face what is normally a fear of ours. And often once we face them, they aren't as big a fear anymore. But sometimes it takes a lifetime to overcome certain fears. I have a few that I just can't seem to get a handle on, no matter what I do. And on occasion, I still have bad dreams of such...
Excellent, Aveira!
