The Weakest form of Surrender.

Fear Our worst enemy Stops us in our tracks Keeps us from doing the things we could be doing Fear leaves me in an in-between I fear so much being alone Growing old In a rickety old house Full of regret That life could be so cruel to me To have me alone in the end Today here I sit Watching the world go by Afraid to make a move Take a chance for love Lost broken opportunities Fearing rejection Not willing to risk a broken heart My greatest fears Love and Loneliness One is inevitable While the other will fade away Love is frightening But is it not better than the alternative? I must choose one or the other I am afraid, so I will do nothing Doing nothing Best option I can think of for now But nothing will soon lead me back to loneliness Fear My worst enemy, Has chosen my path for me.
