FEARS



He knows how I suffer
yet can't help but walk away.
And I can only pity myself,
And chide a young heart gone astray.
A heart that had once felt so calm,
Lost in a thought so pure,
many-a-times enamoured,
But never been in love before.
Nay - I say to my heart,
These pleasures of love
are not for you. thus say
The Gods that roll the dice above.
I know I shall be alone.
Despite these shadows all around me.
My eyes dilute with horror
As I see people surround me.
A sinister smile on my lips,
on my cheek silent tears -
For they have come true...
My ugliest, scariest fears.
