My Greatest Fear Poem by khalifa mustapha

My greatest fear is not absence of triumph
neither success nor victory are as essential

My greatest fear lies in losing you
Knowing that we won't be together
Thought our friendship last forever
Relationship closer than whatsoever

My greatest fear lies in the loneliness
In living life free of happiness
Mysterious wind full of emptiness
My hands crawl and lips sore with dryness

My greatest fear lies in the mystery
Our friendship now becomes history
Me falling apart like spring fruits from an apple tree
And finally an attack deep within the artery

Now that is what am afraid of
That is my greatest fear
