Challenge
Write about something that haunts you but that you wish to let go of. (poetry or prose)
It has to start with "I fear" or "I'm afraid" in whichever style you want. Tag me in the comments if you want a commentary of your work.
A beginning or an end?
Was it a bird or was it destiny?
Pregnant belly and depression.
Weather mirroring her soul.
She sent her kids to her sisters for safe keeping,
One she kept with her and might take with her also.
‘Give me a sign’ she screams at God, Goddess and Universe.
A bird, too stupid to find shelter in a storm or there for a purpose?
A hawk told her not to do it and she didn’t.
So am I here because of a bird or destiny?
