fear of hatred, fear of love fear of anything worth being afraid of. darkness, light.warmth and cold. but fear to me is being able to hold the conflict between myself and i and not giving up ; but preparing to die. i lie awake and contemplate, life on this world, all of the hate. trying to hold on is trying to let go but in which direction am i entitled to go. do i stay here and misery everyones lives with emotions that cut as deep as knives. the road to enchantment seems easy to take but once you step on it, its likely to break. just like your dreams that have shattered away as the fear you cherish forces you to stray towards the darkness, far from the light which guides you through the rest of your life. once you've taken the path you chose thers no way back, you win or you lose. in my case ive lost, no dignity remains unless you help untangle me free of the chains which are pulling me down and never seem to stop until im near the edge, waiting to drop. as ive lost all hope, i dont feel the need to stay any longer ; ive completed no deed. fear of hatred, fear of love. fear of anything worth being afraid of. scared of listening to advice from you, but more importantly, fear of myself and what i could do. |
