Fear
You kept me from experiencing life to its fullest
You made me change and mold to meet your expectations
Removing vital aspects of my being
You dictated my moods
Tears wet my face at night as I lie awake while you sang to me
My friends changed like the seasons as they met you
Slowly I grew to hate myself as I hated what you had become
You consumed my thoughts until I felt death was my only escape
Then with your power you even cheated me of that
Now as I write this letter to you years have passed
You have dried up and blown away like autumn leaves
Now I am free from the chains you wrapped so tightly around my heart
I am now who I always was but could never be with you
I am free

Poetry and Random Musings
PoesiaI have been writing on and off for 20 years and this is a 2 decade collection of random musings. I can see a time of rhyme and other times of dark poetic thoughts, times of humor and just some plain weirdness from Cowboy boots to Cats to War.
