Fear;
Like our own shadow we used to chase as children,
It will never leave us until the darkness consumes us whole.
Pain;
It's an immortal being that lives in our soul,
A being that taunts us constantly, a being that we want to run from.
Just like the shadow we chased,
It too wanted to run,
But, it was restrained, it couldn't leave.
All it could do was watch as our younger self ran towards it,
And cower in fear.
Although we, as children, do it all in fun,
The shadow fears us.
And we are the immortal pain that lives in its soul.
And, it's the same story for us.
Both pain and fear, they do it all in fun.
But, like our chased shadow, we fear them.
Only in different ways.
(I think I used the word 'Fear' way too much, huh?)
