Fear
Fear is a funny thing. I try to run from it, and avoid it, but it hunts me down like a bloodhound.
Fear has my scent and it won't stop until I am consumed with it.
Fear growls at me every time I try to follow my dreams.
Fear eats away at my stomach until I'm sick with worry.
They say there's nothing to fear but fear itself. But, how do you banish something that lives within you? How do I get rid of the doghouse with the name Fear painted over the door? I put food in it's dog bowl, I built the doghouse it lives in. I nurture the very thing I fear. How do I tame man's best friend? How do I tame the beast within me?
