Fear Sustains

Worried and afraid

Tears pour down

streaming, gleaming

sadness falls

darkness descends

trepidation cascades

down down down

through your soul

you are no longer whole

no longer yourself

only a shell of a being

fear is all that sustains you

[John Anderson]

This is so beautifully expressed and wonderfully worded! A praise-worthy poem
