Fears Poem by Elena Sandu

Fears

Rating: 4.8


The Moon, the Sun or Stars,
gives naturally lights
that shines!
.. but in some ways
I find it natural and right
for me to never shine
give you some reasons?
here:
My Fears!
Are my brakes,
my chains
control my wires..
If I reveal them,
can I escape?
Who knows?
..Let's start the fire:

I fear icy
distant faces
of this society,
I fear too deep bows
Haunting silence
Approving nods
All kind of violence!
I fear the paper
Written words
too complicated
to be closed.
I fear a lot,
too many things!
but most
of all
I fear not to loose
My Will to learn
to understand
forgive, assimilate
Then, in the end
Not to forget to be
Just me, myself..
The almost invisible
grain of our Earth's dirt..



Inspired by the Lighthouse Keeper, he did lighted my soul too with his poems, thank you Mikael!

To paraphrase a great man 'What is there to fear than fear itself' seems appropriate to recall. My view: We are all prisoners of fear, real or imagined, existing or in the distant future, so much so that sometimes without fear it would seem abnormal -the daily grind I mean. Baru Gobira
