Fear
Losing all of me
Who am I without you?
Him
Her
Them,
Us
We
Each isolated
Insignificant power
Piled high together.
Building a tower
Of frightmares.
Fear seeping through,
Growing through my body.
As the doctors dance around each word
Your..Cancer...Is..Back
Strung together
In pity
My spirit falls to shambles.
Fear seeping through,
Creeping through my home
Sobbed words spilling
Onto the floor My ‘ama broken strength.
Her mom now with her own.
Knowing
I could never comfort her like ‘Ita could.
Fear seeping through my,
Glitching through my phone.
Them begging me to fight.
With Panic, I turn to flight
My nerves
Deleted with every text
I always meant to send.
Fear seeping through my body.
Words tumbling into the next,
Pushing me down
As the chilling waters crash over me.
Waves of frozen fear
In the middle of December.
