Fear is Nothing.


Fear is a word?

It is a word.

...NO...

Fear is...Something.

 

Well it fills the void

when it's empty,

and clears the mind

from desires.

 

Creates the black in space,

which clears the light 

from the sky

 

Can it be a word?

Am I wrong?

Is certainty playing tricks

on such an ambiguous topic?

 

Fear cannot be touched,

Thus yes! It is a word!

Fear cannot be seen,

Thus yes! It is a word!

 

But what if its blank,

the paper, I mean,

clear from ink

but yet so full of ideas.

 

Just waiting for a pen...

Thats it. Has found fear!

Fear, fear, fear.

 

Fear for the pen to write,

The mouth to speak,

The sky to have light,

Yet it fills the void.

 

But, How can the void be filled?

If its clear from the start?

Words have no void filling properties!

Words speak to heart ,

They wet the heart and soul in nectar.

 

Fear is not a word!

Fear is a devil of imagination!

Fear is nothing!

 

Fear is nothing.
