Fear causes paralysis <br />Emotions are all numbed <br />Thoughts go may blank <br />As one becomes deaf and dumb. <br /> <br />Fear closes our eyes <br />To glaring truth that stares <br />Accepting all the lies <br />In silence, without care. <br /> <br />Fear locks our doors <br />To the beauty of life and choices <br />We lose sight of what we live for <br />Surrendered to muted voices. <br /> <br />Fear is a daily death <br />Like walls in a coffin sealed <br />An existence in useless breath <br />A vessel that can never be filled. <br /> <br />Hurts are kept locked up <br />No sound, just feeling empty <br />We can't even say 'That's enough! ' <br />There's no sense of what's to be free.<br /><br />Cynthia BuhainBaello<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/fear-147/
