Fear

Fear

A Poem by Will
"

Today, my sister asked me what my greatest fear was. This is the answer to that question,

"
I fear being alone
I fear being alone in the cold
I fear being alone in the cold as I draw my last breath

Being alone frightens me
I need people by my side:
Friends to encourage me
Enemies to discourage me
A lover to warm me

Friends to keep me company
Enemies to try and drag me down
A lover to keep me sane

I fear being alone
I fear being alone in the cold
I fear being alone in the cold as I draw my last breath

That means quite a lot, and I appreciate you reading and reviewing, thank you.
You're never alone. Not if I can help it.
Unlike you, I am destined to be so, my dear.

It's the fear that might kill me. Not the actual state

don't fear fear. it'll just make you more fearful. haha
Well written & thought too.
Friends, Enemies and Love.
All three are needed in our life.
They show us all the colors of life.
