My Neurosis Poem by Barry Middleton

My Neurosis



I'm not afraid
of death
but I am afraid
of dying
I'm not afraid
of sadness
but I am afraid
of crying
I'm not afraid
of freedom
but being free
is scary
I'm not afraid
of happiness
but it's wisest
to be wary
I'm not afraid
of memories
but forgetting
terrifies
I'm not afraid
to speak the truth
but I am afraid
of lies
