The Fear…


Heart’s aching
Don’t know what to do
Will I die?
Or is it shrills of fear

I ponder, look around
Nothing seems to approach
Yet an ache, a torrid one
That leaves me edgy  

Relax, calm down, relax
I’m told.
How long I want to know
I’m scared, it aches

Stifled I stay on
Compose is all I can do
Right within my heart,
I tell myself….

Look Ahead, Face It and You Shall Overcome.

  2. Nice one... looks like a contiuation to 'Hum honge kaamyab / We shall overcome'... but nice... Personally, would have loved if you went on to explain more on what the fear is or how the emotion grew and matured and finally died... To me, it looked like you started it very beautifully but as it started to progress, it was finished, abruptly (No offence intended).

  3. Let fear not daunt your spirit
    Let your head be held high.
    Let your mind be free as air you breath
    Let your heart spread its wings and fly high

  4. Happiness has its own ways
    People spend their lives searching for it
    But it finds its own way into people's lives.
