Fear

I fear too many things,

despite of all the good advice

I cannot change myself,

how much I try,

how hard I hope

it’s all for nothing,

words are after all just words

if they are without meaning,

if I cannot live by them

                                                                                                 

then I am lesser than I supposed to be,

it makes the colours disappear,

a silencer on the sounds I like to hear,

it is what it is,

just plain and simple fear.
