What could be my biggest fear
you wonder.
I have many fears.
I don't think I'm afraid of everything.
I am afraid of death.
I'm afraid I haven't lived my life well enough.
What if I failed at life.
I'm afraid I'll blink and be gone.
Only to realize I failed.
Am I afraid of failure?
Is that why I don't try?
I give up before I can fail.
Giving up is worse that failure.
I'm also scared of being alone.
I know a lot of people are.
My fears are no different.
I can't let them hold me back,
tie me down, and beat me.
Sometime at night when I'm alone
my fears are at their worst.
I cry and worry and panic.
It's not healthy.
Wait a minute could it be the devil
telling me things so i cry and worry and panic
so I can't do anything and I can't live up to my
full potential.
I won't let fear stop me,
hold me back, beat me down.
I won't fear death
It will be ok, and I've got to
realize that we are NEVER alone.
God is always with us.
I won't let anything stand in my way
I just might save the world

Wonderful
In the third paragraph i'm pretty sure the second to last world should be then not that. I like this poem, it dosen't seem like a poem almost, as if your just writing words, figuring out your fear in a way that just happens to form into a poem. A lot of people have thoughts such as these and it's wonderful that you figured them out rather then just leaving yourself confused, and i love how in the end you relize that the best thing to do is be strong.
