Shadows of Fear

Fear is like the night,
creeping into the soul,
with mysterious shadows,
that obscure the path,
it is a coldness,
that seeps under the skin,
and in its fog,
all clear contours fade,
in every whisper,
there is an echo of anxiety,
spreading like a dark dust in the breeze,
and in my heart, I feel,
how it tightens,
how it grips me,
how it binds me.

Every step,
in its presence,
is filled with hesitation,
every decision,
is like a leap,
into the unknown,
it is an emptiness,
that grips the throat,
and the fear of what may come,
of what will remain,
becomes a heavy burden,
pulling me down,
with every glance,
into the unknown,
with every step into the darkness,
I feel it surround me,
how it drains my strength,
how it steals my hope.

Fear is a voice,
whispering in the dark,
an invisible enemy,
creeping into dreams,
and in every whisper, I feel,
how it surrounds me,
how it tries,
to extinguish every flame,
every desire and dream,
that I once held,
it is like a nightmare,
that never ends,
creeping into days,
clutching me in every night,
and I try to find peace,
in the chaos,
that envelops me.

But fear,
is also a teacher,
that guides us,
in its quiet dialogue with us,
we find a strength,
hidden deep within,
it is like a fire,
that warms us,
when we learn to overcome,
when we learn to face,
what terrifies us,
and in every battle,
that we fight against it,
we discover courage,
that fortifies us,
we find light in the darkness,
showing us the way out.

And so, when fear,
comes again,
in its fog,
and in its cold embrace,
let us remember, that it is just,
a part of the journey,
a part of what shapes us,
of what teaches us,
and in every moment,
that we confront our fears,
we become stronger,
wiser,
finding the courage,
that propels us forward,
in every step,
in every breath,
in what fear leaves behind,
we find our own,
inner strength,
the light,
that guides us through the darkness,
and shows us,
the path to freedom.
