My Fears

I have many fears,

Just like any human,

Fear seems to be apart of our mind that cannot be truly removed or destroyed;

But you ask what I fear,

What I specifically fear,

So I shall tell you of some of them.

My first and greatest fear,

Is to fall in love,

Only to lose her, and the child, in childbirth;

It is a fear that has plagued me,

And caused more than one horrifically terrifying nightmare.

My second fear,

Is that despite my hopes,

That the country in which I live,

Will turn into a fascist state,

That the good life I should've had,

Will be stolen from me from under my feet,

By the evil of men in power.

And that is all I'm willing to say about my fears.
