Fear!
The heavy burden.
A weight so mighty that you weakens the soul.
Your appearance makes the heart race and the mind quake.
Just a thought of you, awakens the deepest emotions that one tries to hide away.
They all come running in, but not in a warm embrace.
Fear!
A four lettered word with so much tremor.
How can a thing be so little and cause such harm.
You wreck havoc in your quake and a headache in your wake.
Your appearance fluid and unknown, yet such power you enfolds.
You are physically intangible yet so quantifiable.
Fear!
Stories of you gave us wisdom.
As a child, I learned to walk and learned your name alongside.
Forgetting you was just impossible and popular you became.
Your allies were all over, who never failed to sing your praise.
Your most faithful ally was darkness, who never failed to steal my breath away.
Fear!
I'm years older now.
But as i grew i realized you grew too.
It was a sad reality but it is one that i have come to accept.
Accept i must, because clearly you will never be gone.
What more can i do than attest to the power that comes with your name.
Fear!
My great enemy.
If you were human I imagine your name would be "I've come to stay"
Most likely because you just want to remind me of your painful existence everyday.
Not to worry, you might be strong, but i just got stronger.
Fear!
Listen to me.
For time has taught me how to be wise.
Just as you have allies, I've learnt to have mine.
They are trust, preparedness, perseverance, faith, to mention just a few.
You may scorn and laugh because you think you're all powerful.
Your power i do not doubt, but i have power too.
Fear!
You're only temporary.
Time and time again of being under your spell has taught me that you too will, and do pass.
No matter how strong your hold is, it's always ephemeral and never forever.
So i am rest assured that safety is sure.
Fear!
Do not take me for granted.
Your tricks still work on me, but I'm no easy prey.
Your sting may get me down but I'll be back again.
This time not to get bitten but to have you out of the way.
Despite your power and strength, i shall overcome.
Fear!
I'd watch out if i were you.
You've never been thrown out forever or have you?
So you'd better be alert cos I'm here with a fight.
This time i won't go defeated.
I'm here to win,
And win i must!
So, fear!
Look out and look over your shoulder,
Cos mhizrutty is here!
It feels good to be back after a long break!🎉🎉
Thank you for stopping by! ❤️❤️
