The One You Call Fear Poem by Wallis minten

I am the unspoken truth in your mind
So why do you run from me dear?
I am one of your dearest friends
I am the one you call Fear
Let me slip into your darkest thoughts
And help them expand and progress
I will make them control your life
Until you become fully obsessed
You might try to push me away
But I will always be in your head
You can’t run from yourself you know
So let me fill you with dread
It is useless to try to fight me
I will always be in the back of your mind
You are the one that made me you know
I was born from the thoughts of your kind
Yes, I was there with you when you were a child
Oh, how I laugh when you squirm when I’m near
I know you better than you will ever know
I am the one you call Fear
