“I am not afraid of unanswered prayers. Because I have trust that they will always be answered. I have faith that none of my wishes, my prayers will be left unheard. I am sure that they all will tear apart the skies and land right where they ought to, because the faith with which I send them is unshakeable. I am afraid though that the prayers I pray, the ones that will be answered, may prove to be wrong for me. I am afraid that I don’t know what the future entails and what I wish for might prove to be my bane. I am afraid that better than my wishes are His plans for me and therefore I bow my head and surrender my wills to Him and hope that the One who loves me more than myself will know exactly what to bestow me with. And in doing this I have never regretted...”

A poem about dogs
Dogs are a great thing
Spending time together
I can't think of anything
Better in stormy weather
Some dogs do not like
The loud booms
And owners too I think
Want to hide in their rooms
You comfort the dog
The dog comforts you
You pet the dog calmly
The dog protects too
Side by side
As the clouds clear
Both you and the dog
Together facing your fears
©porcupine7 0And if you begin assuming that every fire started in this world will reach your home and burn it down, you will never get to stay in your home. You will always be putting off the fires which you didn't even start. The fires which wouldn't even affect you.
- Akshay vasu11 0My fears
Are taking over me,
Getting deeper in the cracks
They are breaking me
©lonelysheep13 0Scars
I Stumbled, tried to stand but fell.
Fell down and dirty. Conquered the hell.
Holding my fears and tears for years
Walked out of it with souvenirs.
I carry them all the time, visible
I must carry them, they are inevitable.
They are deep and big, not able to hide.
They are mine, they are my pride.
Some call it symbols of hurt and shame.
They are my trophies of pain I overcame.
It is beautiful, some find it bizarre.
My smile never fades. Yes, it's a scar.
©mahaganapati13 0Scared .
Been honest to my self
And telling the truth
To my self out loud ..
©fallinghearts5 1"Courage Over Fears"
Too many fears to convince my mind:
I fear of choking on fishbones,
Or stumbling upon a stranger danger,
I am scared of betrayals and heartbreaks,
Or losing the most-loved ones;
I get agitated by health check-ups and dubiety,
While both stagnancy and change terrify me;
I am afraid of being a vain- a nameless vain,
Or a soul devoid of purpose-driven salvation;
But death could only answer to my fears,
And this misery could only end with death;
But only courage can challenge the fears;
To let go of irresolution and timidity of mind;
To face uncertainties and let things be;
To take the risks unknown of the outcome;
Let constancy overrides these trepidations
Whether it be stability or change;
Because only fortitude not death can win over fears.

Oh my fears!
Once in a while,
I sit with my fears;
I have put them
inside this dark room.
When I enter,
they seem awfully
quiet,
Just like silence before storm,
Like they are going to tear me
apart,
the way a injured lion would;
I sit there anyway,
Sometimes confident,
Sometimes shivering;
Waiting them to snap at me.
Sometimes they do snap back,
and sometimes they are frightened by my presence.
More I sit with them,
more powerless they get.
So, no matter how scary it gets
I keep going back there,
And one day they will reduce into ashes.
©pavvya8 0And I've been driving that car since then. My demon is sitting behind me, smirking and staring at my reflection in the front mirror, while I am doing the same. I've been taking him to all the places that I want to go. But I fear that there comes a day where he will see the uncertainty and fear in my face. And that moment, he will take the wheel and push me to the backseat. And that day, he will begin to take me to the places where he always wanted to go.
- Akshay Vasu8 2The Monster Inside
Taken into context
The whole story
Is an allegory
The fits and fancy
Of which
We make decisions
And support divisions
From the truth
Media bits and bytes
Facts and fiction
Not an absolute depiction
Of stylish diction
Choice of messages
Notwithstanding
Undeniable delights
That feed appetites
Delivered in such a way
As if to say
You're Ok
With the knowledge
That power is perverted
Honesty averted
And choice
Is an illusion
A mirage of sorts
The average Joe
Always weak
And misguided fools
Kept in the dark
But on a lark
Go along with a song
That it's all done
In the name
Of righteous fun
And responsible
Missions made
But never paid
By honest sweat
The price of debt
Loaned out once too often
At exorbitant interest
Compounded
Year over year
Our temptations
Stoked by fear
The Monster inside
Appears
But never cares
About the damage done
Just a casual afterthought
Bought with the souls
Of the innocent and young
©acksmack5 0 1Keep going
Sometimes you just feel like running away,
But then you tell yourself if you let go of this now
You might regret it later...
And that's what keeps you going
©sayuki8 0 1That's what had happened all these years. The fear that I feared the most had taken the face of every single person I had loved. I never really understood whether the fear stole it from them or they traded their faces with the fear for something in return. But then she came, the one that I fell in love with hopelessly. I believed that there was something about her, and she would never let that fear have her face. But within some time, there it was, the fear that I fear the most, laughing menacingly at me while wearing her face. And nothing ever broke me till date the way that moment did.

Fears
My fears were his strengths,
utilized it well to his advantage,
Mistook it as affection from him,
I surrendered to it every day,
His sudden departure
made me incapable of digesting
and handling my own fears
Which once was only in my head
but now it came into existence for real
How I wished, I kept them in
and not reveal them to face
this day I feared for
©nandhinikannan11 1 1Fear
Yes, I have fears,
Not hundreds not just one,
But I have fears,
I fear my past,
What if my past comes knocking on the doors of present?
Just the mere thought about this makes me panic.
I fear future too,
Would the consequences of my present mistakes ruin my future?
These thoughts are enough to push me into the pools of anxiety.
I fear my present too,
What if they feel bad about the way I talked,
The way I walked,
The way I dressed,
The way I sit, the way I stand,
These things would be enough for them to leave me alone,
This fear would eat me up all day
Controlling my thoughts is not the way,
I fear relationships,
What would I do if he found someone better than me,
The more intellectual,
Some really beautiful pretty girl
Would the spark between us fade away then,
Would he then break up the lifetime promises leaving me all alone.
I fear friendships
What if I wouldn't be able to match that social status,
That club parties,that dressing style,
What if i would not able to match their levels,
What would be my fate then,
I fear love, the word love
But what if i wouldn't be able to match thier expectations,
What would happen if i wouldn't fulfil their dreams,
Their depressed faces,highly disappointing tones,
No ,no I can't face it,
I fear watching dreams
What if i wouldn't be able to achieve them and then drown myself in the seas of regret
I can't afford it,
I fear failures,
If i fail,i would be that laughing doll with good for nothing tag pasted on my head,
I fear heights,
It actually shows me if i would fall down i would never be able to climb up back,
I fear darkness,
It makes me feel all sorts of loneliness with no one around
Me struggling and fighting all alone,
Fears ,fears and fears
Fears all around
It has been 19 years I'm running
Running from fears,
Running from failures,
Running from myself.
It's not overthinking
Neither its an attention seeking strategy
Nor I crave for sympathy.
Yeah I fear
And that is okay
That is okay.

Hiding the hurt, hiding the pain,
Hiding the tears that fall like rain.
Saying I'm fine when I'm anything but.
This ache in my soul rips at my gut.
My skin is on fire; I burn from within.
The calm on my face is an ongoing sin.
The world must stay out; I've built up a wall.
My fragile lie will collapse should it ever fall.
Loneliness consumes me; it eats away the years
Until my life is swallowed by unending fears.
Waiting for someone to see I wear a mask
And care enough to remove it; is that too much to ask?14 2 1- connecdots No it's not. And i truly wish you get someone in lyf who removes that mask.

What's your biggest fears, hopes and dreams?
I know you see that blue horizon
And it seems too far away
And the dreams you have need you to cross the ocean
But the ocean seems too deep
What lies ahead is far too scary
You'd rather stay in your boat safe
There are sharks out there and you could grow weary
From swimming in the cold and deep
But a storm is coming so adjust your sails
You are afraid of success, afraid you'll fail
Afraid of what you'll find when you get there
But it's okay, just breathe in deep
You want to be a blessing and help those in need
You got to learn this lesson, advice you should heed
Listen more, talk less, bring joy to your friends
In a selfish world, be of service
Be a loving and caring person
Laugh more, why so serious?
Give more, why delirious?
We all want to live a healthy life
We all want a balanced life
So when you're in your boat
Afraid to row
Breathe in deep
Imagine where you want to be
And start rowing
And if a storm comes by
Adjust your sail
Make sure no water comes inside
Dump it out with a pail
Because the vast ocean can't drown you
But a hole in your boat can
Hold on to the ones who found you
And be a gentleman

flaunt your fears
as they carve a geography on your skin.
probably a Border War, probably!
you are in two territories when it happens
- where the fear outlives
- where you fight to outlive it
I know it's not easy to be seen fighting a war
but flaunt it still, try?
let the world see the two lives in you
half-dead, half-alive
