Fears

Me and my fears envelope me

A strange fear of the unknown

The unknown path of the untold

The untold path yet to unfold

The untold path of life....

Where would life lead me?

What lies in the path ahead?

Lost in the mirage of millions…

Perhaps lies shielded the purpose of this existence,

Me and my fears engulf me...

Is life just the way it is

Work and earn

For food and shelter,

A little more for luxury

More for riches and designer matter,

A crave for wealth

A crave for fame

For name, for power…

Is this all on life’s platter?

Me and my fears insinge me

Will not all this be left behind,

When this cloak of a body declines,

And there’s nothing left but ashes and cinder?

Me and my fears ensnare me…
