FEAR

FEAR

Fear of the
Unknown

Fear itself
Fear of
Oneself

Ones
Strength
Failure
And even
Success

What does one do
When fear engulfs
Envelopes
And overpowers?

Not knowing
The source
Is worst than
Fear
That engulfs

Rendering you
Afraid
Cause and effect
Go hand in hand

Identifing the cause
Could be part
Of the solutions

May be the remedy
For fear
Is not to be afraid

But
Summoning courage
Could be first
Stage

Knowing the cause
And devising
Strategy
Could be the
Next stage

Tackling fear head on
Might be a bold plan

But one has to be aware
For the consequences
Could be dire

As F D Roosevelt
Said,
May be the only
Thing
To Fear
Is fear itself

Not bother what happens
To oneself and others
