The Enemies of My Life ~ What If, and Fear (A Poem A Day – Not about me)

I hate them so much, yet they are a constant in my ear.

Those three hated words ~ “What If” and “Fear”.

I do my best to overcome them and shoo them away

But no matter what I try, they seem to be here to stay!

Like a bad relationship, I wonder what I can do to escape

But every time I try, they’re back in my mind to rape.

They forcefully take away every desire and dream of success

Then leave me in a fetal position, an emotional wreck.

But I continue to allow it

Because, although I hate them with a passion

I don’t know who I’d be without them.

What If and Fear have lived with me for most of my days

so how can I live without them, for real? They’re my craze.

I want a to get away from “What If and Fear”

I want them both to get out of my ear!!!

So tell me friend, what is it that I must do?

Because these three words always make me feel useless and blue.
