Fear

Folder: 
2017
In these aged days
I don't fear rejection the same way anymore...

I embrace my love
but I fear relying too much upon others
and their wounds that sear the deepest
I fear their actions, and the vulnerability that only love can invoke
I fear unhinged passion in solitude
I fear manipulation from wiser hands than mine

I embrace my energy and my determination
but I fear losing creativity
and forgetting the tools keeping the workable clay in my capable hands
I fear the unspoken, yet tangible
I fear the unknown, yet so glaringly logical
I fear over-analysis in a stagnant world

I embrace tomorrow
but I fear goodbye
and at times
I fear hello exponentially more.

Hiya

It's been a long time,but I see you are still thinking deep

and writing with bold honesty!

I'd not fear much, really, but losing the " tools to write" 

Ohhh nooooo not that!

You expressed yourself richly and openly. Bravo!

Hugs,

Koko
