I Fear …

I FEAR …

I fear from my fear
If it will make me dead
If it will cut my red
Or will make me mad
If it will tell me to die
How can I tell lie to her
That I was killed
By my fear or by my own self
I m dieing under my melancholy


Might my fear could talk to me
And I can ask why it happens
That I always be scary
From moments, from whiles,
And from unknown twists
I m feeling fear from my fear
If it will make me cry as it does
My fear makes my lovers sad
But how can I stop my scary whine

  • This was a very confusing poem. The way you worded things really threw me. The flow seemed to be broken up in various places because of certain lines.

    If it will make me dead
    If it will cut my red

    That doesn't make much sense...but perhaps you are being abstract? Anyway, thanks for entering and good luck.

    loved this:

    I fear from my fear
    If it will make me dead
    If it will cut my red
    Or will make me mad
    If it will tell me to die

    fear is completely natural reaction to this scary world and even our inner selves. Trust in God and pray to ease those fears. After the hardship...there is ease brother.

    a deep write that is full of emotion, we all have inner fears and battle with them daily, this is a good demonstration of how these fears can take over our thoughts and lives if we let them, keep up the good work my friend, a pleasure reading your work as usual

    Thank you for sharing this with me & the Group......may I say, that.....*Fear*...is not of God, or aything Good.....Fear is from satan himself......I hope you take that to heart....if you ever want to talk....you know where to find me....Bless you,

    This is a courageous piece,very gripping.Wonderful imagery. A couple of small things..maybe in line 6 you want the plural "lies" or one lie, (if so you don't need the "tell")??In the 9th line a spelling error.. dying.Also the 3rd line in the second stanza do you mean I'm always scared rather than "that I always be scary" ? I'm not being critical I think the poem is beautiful, I just want to understand your intentions completely, and I'll add that I really love the last 2 lines. Nice write!

    "I fear from my fear" and the similar line in the second stanza is grammatically awkward, and doesn't make sense. "How can I tell lie to her" is also incorrect grammar (how can I lie to her) "dying" is spelled wrong, and don't even get me started with the second stanza's grammar. More importantly, "fear" is a big abstract word which is never nailed down in this piece, so this poem never touches me, never even gestures to me. Fear of what? How can the reader identify with something you never explain? Being brutally harsh because you asked for it.

      ages ago i had corrected dying as dieing ... granny told that dieing is the correct spelling

      and now you are telling that dying is correct

      "I fear from my fear" and the similar line in the second stanza is grammatically awkward, and doesn't make sense. "How can I tell lie to her" is also incorrec

      this one is your own likeness... the fear i have shown in this piece felt by many of readers .. so im no worrying about your this point

      at first when i read your comment i was shocked but its okay now

      Thanks for giving time

        dying is like lying in spelling .. dieing is not correct in the usage. your granny must have been confused.. there is another words dyeing that is for colouring dye on hair. check this link for more information
        http://dictionary.reference.com/search?q=die

        again when say " you tell lie to her" its also in correct because lie is telling a false information.. you cant tell telling a false information
        it must be either " you tell A lie to her" or " you lie to her"

        again your second line "If it will make me dead" your dead once you die.. so you meant was that your fear is killing you.. so you can rephrase it such as " if it bring me my death" .

        this a very unique write but serious revision is needed.. i like your depth in it but your choice of words are lil different

    Great

    I fear from my fear
    If it will make me dead
    If it will cut my red
    Or will make me mad
    If it will tell me to die
    How can I tell lie to her
    That I was killed
    By my fear or by my own self
    I m dieing under my melancholy

    I love the opening stanza...I have also felt smothered by my own fears and melancholy. The want to just end it all to stop the fear that holds you captive...Great write. ~mandie~

    sorry

    No offence, but that made no sence whatsoever.
    Not to mension I could barely read it because the font is almost the same colour as the background.
    and "but how can i stop my scary whine" ain't a good line.

    No fear of expression here...

    You've broken rules that bind most poets with many of these expressions that scream defiance of normality. These crazy insights had me reeling over and over again, but in the end I felt connected and fortunate to have read your message. Nice art!

    Personally, I didn't move me much. Maybe I'm just a cruel heartless person or I'm just weird. I'm settling for the latter. I found that it was hard to read due to the color of the text against the background. Maybe that's why I didn't like it, because I couldn't read it. Also, dying is spelled "d-y-i-n-g," not "d-i-e-i-n-g. Ignore the grammar/spelling Nazi for now.

    The mind holds all

    The mind holds all thoughts and feelings let your heart bring out the best of the thoughts . For its the thoughts you dwell upon that rules your world . Let not fear of the unknown be present for its up to you to replace those thoughts of fear with confidence through admitting you are the controler of your mind . Push the fear away and replace it with the ability to live for fear is only what we make it to be just as love . Love yourself and find comfort and joy within and others will follow . What makes you happy for no one can bring you joy if you dont find it within and know who you are and what life can be with the proper thoughts to keep .We all have thoughts we are afraid at times and yes they are very strong indeed . But you have to push those thoughts away and reach out so others can see your visions from within
    This is a very thought provoking read with whispers of I want to be me how can this be for fesr has taken hold of me. You can change your train of thought for as you begine to dwell on a good thought you will lose the fear and replce it with joyand freedom of the mind
