Free Verse Poems:

Fears

I'm afraid of alot of things

Especially the things we can't control;

In this world like dying

Will we be re-incarnated?

Or just fall into oblivion?

Will our existence and memories be forgotten?

As if we never lived

In this beautiful place we call Earth

Now, since I've died, 

my loved ones are the anchor that

hold on to my very existence 

and mourn the life that I once lived

Like I said, I'm afraid of alot of things

Such as falling in love

I wonder if I will find the right guy

That finally respects me and loves me

for the real me, not the mask that 

I often wear to others in my despair

I'm scared that once I finally fall in love,

something tragic will happen

that will leave this love shattered as

a broken frame of a picture

so shattered that it can't fix

No marriage, no kids

Can't one see that I am afraid of alot of things

But the number one thing that

I'm afraid of is....change

Things change like the seasons

Whether it's people, places, or events

Change happens and it's makes me

Feel like the moon

Full of craters, filled with wounds

That won't adjust to the changes 

But instead stay like an open wound

Unable to share my emotions

But like I said I'm afraid of alot of things

I can't help it but that's what it means to be human

Being afraid but still striving to live each day

Overcoming my fears and becoming brave
