Fear

This fear of the unknown,

unwarranted, yet it resides deep within me.

Why am I afraid to live in this moment?

I shrink at the thought of the next,

what tomorrow might bring me.

My future seen through this negative mindset

leaves my mind weak and spirit broken.

My emotions out of control.

Days wasted, worrying of things that haven't

and may never happen.

My life, empty of peace.

Every moment given away

waiting on the worst to present itself.

My negative thoughts

have brought a sickness to my heart

and death to my spirit.
