i am afraid of fear.

i am afraid of fear,
it is debilitating, it controls me with long fingers whose grip is frozen to my puppet strings.
It laughs in quiet delight as i dance across the stage of hardwood floors that blister my feet.
My lungs heave, yearning for uninfluenced air.
My stomach clenches in an uncomfortable cage that chick flicks and warm blankets and hugs can't stop my heart from remembering.
It's shriveled form crouches in corners and stares unblinkingly into wide eyes and behind shut eyelids.
fear does not find you, you find it.
For fear is a combination of paranoid thoughts, thoughts that may or may not be well founded, and slowly rise in strength as you so choose to build it.
