I'm Afraid

The Motion

I'm afraid I will not be successful

I'm afraid of reincarnation

I'm afraid of society

I'm afraid of commitment

I'm afraid to fully trust someone

I'm afraid of being Unaccepted 

I'm afraid of people closest to me leaving me behind

I'm afraid of losing the people closest to me

I'm afraid of being forgotten

I'm afraid of the afterlife not being what I'm imagining

I'm afraid of pain

I'm afraid of being stuck at a job I never wanted

I'm afraid of my idols not being remembered forever

I'm afraid I will never be good enough to stand out forever

I'm afraid I might not ever be immortalized

I'm afraid that I love you but you love me not...

I love this, brutally honest.
I can understand the reasoning behind each and every fear.
Reincarnation has always been one of my fears as well, I think I would rather there be nothing to be reincarnated... yet there is that tiny glimmer of hope for a second chance.
I think these are fears that every human experiences throughout their lives. I believe one of the scariest things we all have to go through is our lives not turning out the way we wanted them to are living up to our expectations. Good write!

I"m a very fearful person so this poem spoke to me. Really enjoyed it.

and the most fearful thing of all - being unloved - because love casts out fear. I think we who read this share many of these fears.
