Fear


Fear is a demon that holds us captive,

Fear is a blanket of disappointment that wraps around us when were scared. 

Fear does not have an age limit, it can haunt any and everyone.

Fear can hurt you if you let it, it will make your mind believe that you can't do it.

Fear makes you scared of failing something you've never tired before. 

Fear makes your heart beat like a humming bird's wings.

Fear is a mind boggling dilemma, should you do it? 

Knowing you might fail or succeed.

Or should you not do it? Never knowing the outcome. 

How can Fear be just a word and have so much control over us?
