Fear is a cage

Which causes my rage

It haunts me for days

Until I know of its ways

It overpowers my mind

It is never encouraging, never kind

Fear is the starting point of evil thoughts

That even I myself have wrought

Fear is like a wolf stalking prey

So sly, so clever in its day

Sometimes, fear gives me a chance

To end my forever-occurring trance

The chance to see how fear itself is really like

Even though it knows I would resist with all my might

Fear can be tricky, so here’s what it does

Acting helpless and innocent because

 I’m very sensitive, I would take the bait

But the time to resist would be too late

So I say yes

Not caring how big is my mess

I never told my family, anyone I trust

That these thoughts I think of are what I must
Do to satisfy myself

But would it affect my mind and health?

For days, I pondered this thought

Realizing I called my lot

I searched frantically for the right words

To tell my parents that this whole thing is just absurd

Finally, my mom confronted me

Asking what was the matter, what did I plan to see?

I told her the truth, I confessed

About the fear I wanted to confront as my test

When I was done talking to her, I felt the fear going away

Never again leading me astray

Fear does come back

But I don’t have any more lack

Fears can overpower you or make you do something you shouldn’t do

But I ask you, “What choice would you choose?”
