I guess it's losing all my words
All my thoughts
Crumbled up or neatly written
Lost to someone else
I get scared though there's a big
Trail of evidence
I have left on every platform
Showing I'm what I say I am
That I spat all these words
I claim as my own
What's your biggest fear?
I guess it's earning a place
Six feet under
Before I birth and present
My heirs to the world
I don't want to live a purposeless life
And words are all I live for
My biggest fear is
Being quiet with all these
Waves within me
I want people to surf
To swim
To dive
I want people to explore
The world I created
Even so I know
This fear
If I keep it
It's what will make me
Prematurely venture
Into the known world
A poet plunging to her death
What's your biggest fear?
Right now, nothing
I do have faith though
Faith that no one
Will kidnap my mind
Giving the world what's mine
Pretending it's theirs
And I'm ready
To face whatever
Will fall on my lap
I don't want to live a purposeless life And words are all I live for............I have faith, faith that no one will kidnap my mind. excellent my dear poet. write, write, write, words are your great friends. tony
