Afraid

What are you afraid of I whisper to myself deep in the night.
Because I can’t let it out that I am afraid and prone to frights.
So many things that make me tremble from within.
But I have to be stoic and keep up the livin.

Run, cry, panic and despair,
Are all feelings that keep reappearing in pairs,
To deal with them in peace is a lesson yet to be mastered,
How to be fearless and patient often makes me flustered.

On thing that helps with fear in the long run I realised,
Is to not expect anything from anyone and be relaxed.
The moment hope and expectations seem to appear,
The journey is sure to be bumpy and scary my dear.

However little things and gestures can make a huge impact.
Even bigger than materialistic gifts that wow on contact.
Opening or shutting a door, mopping the wet kitchen floor.
Keeping things in place, and replacing the flowers in the vase.
Remembering the little things, are all that is needed.
To allay fears of neglect and make life bloom as expected.

Don’t be afraid I whisper to myself when all seems gloomy.
Life will surely glow with love and care when it’s sunny.
I Keep smiling and wishing for all I want and deserve.
The universe will surely bless me with all its love in Reserve.
Fears will vanish and be replaced by the surety of equity.
In a life which is insulated from judgement and rigidity.
