Lonilness is the isolation I recieve
from my mother who rarely shows love
from siblings who leave whenever they please
from family abandoning family
Fear to me is
the closeness men get to me as they
take whatever they want and leave
behind nothing but a broken girl
Fear to me is
never moving forward
out of the depression that encases my heart daily
the anxiety that never seems to leave my head
My own thouhgts turn to lightning
striking my soul, heart, and mind
crashing against the bars of the cages
made to keep everything locked inside
Fear encases my heart
Fear takes away my ability to feel
Fear takes away my ability to breath
But I don't let the fear control me.

This piece is the examples of fear that I constantly feel in my everyday life. It consumes my heart and takes control of my mind. At times it's hard to move forward but I'm learning to not let the fears control me.
Writing is my freedom from the demons of everyday life. It's my favorite form of expression, even when it's not in poetry form.
