If you're reading this my friend
it means the end is near
and for those who think I'm so brave
this is what I fear.
I fear you
I fear me
I fear everything I see.
I fear life and
I fear death
I fear my one last breath.
I fear love
I fear hate
but most of all I fear fate.
I fear faith
I fear denial
I feel like my whole life's on trial.
I fear my weakness
I fear your strengh
I'm always kept at arms length.
I fear the begining
I fear the end
I fear the message that was never sent
but most of all I fear right now.
I wish I could get out somehow
but as this is not the case
I guess I'll keep going with a smile plasted on my face
and hope that life soon gets better
and your not left to find this letter.

Groovy Write! I thought the flow between free verse and rhyme was cool for this. I like the combinations of long and short lines, i think it adds interest and depth to your writing. Thanks for putting yourself out here for us...raw!

wow, this was incredibly emotional. sad adn self hatred all rapped up in one package. it makes me wanna think about what would happenand if things were different. i liked the lines about fearing your weakness and his/her strength. i think it takes alot of courage to realize you fear something that should not be feared at all. nothing should be feared but fear itsef and if you fear your weakness then your weakness is an object of fear which is not fear its self so you should not fear it or provoke the fear. face and fix your fear. good luck with understanding that and greatw rite

the thing i loved about this, is it was flowing on, and it was building the emotion. I have honestly felt like this so many times before. THough lately it hasnt been easy to write about, i have just had writers block. You have done this beautifully
