Daily Prompt: 1984
You’re locked in a room with your greatest fear. Describe what’s in the room.
Locked alone
Abandoned
Imprisoned
In this room
My thoughts
Free
To torture me
No inspiration
No motivation
Silence
So loud
It deafens me
No friends
No enemies
No existence
Apart from me
Trapped
Behind my eyes
I find my biggest fear
IS ME

You put out great personal stuff, Hasty!
Are you really your own biggest fear?
Absolutely. There are times I feel the only thing that can truly hurt me….is me
Well, as long as you can control the impulse, being the oly one who can hurt you is pretty good…
Do you have parts of yourself you fear?
Hell yes.
But I’m very good at barreling ahead willy nilly, and ignoring them.
And sometimes I get to stare down those fears by jumpin goff a bridge.
Take me with you next time…that could work
HELL YES!!!
i think alot of us can relate to this
A amazing poem. I like the directness and the logical ending.
beautiful poem. beautiful! and… well… you read my own thoughts
), have you been here near, or what?
)
Isn’t it frightening to be under attack from your own feelings?
Yes…it’s scary not to be able to trust yourself
L.O.V.E this one!!! I completley and utterly relate… I am my own worst enemy, my own fall and demise, my own fear at times as well. Beautifully written piece!

When the words of another, such as your talented poetic self, touch a place in my heart, or in my soul, or a part of my past, it is easy to express just how your words have made an impression on me. I don’t have many people in my life who write, like me, or like you, and I really enjoy blogging with you… Like I have said, you inspire me to put my poetic pieces on my blog, although I haven’t yet, but I will… I will…
~ Jen
Do it

great writing my friend!!!! thanks also for the ping back!
Thanks for linking to my post.
It’s true about being your own worst enemy; it’s also true that you’re your best friend.
the only fear is ME
so cool daily prompt
pretty inspiring to be honest
maybe my next daily prompt I will try to write up a poem
thanks for the inspiration
Great writing as usual. It is true the person who can hurt us the most is the one who knows all our secrets, all our fears, ourselves.
