Invisible Fear

Peekaboo I see you But you do not see me Clammy sweat Palms get wet You want to run, be free Shiver, shake Wide eyes make You give a stiffled scream Unclear doubt What's about Feel's like horrible dream Heartbeats race You hide face You can't this torture bear Close behind Me you'll find You know my name as Fear You can't see Wicked me But Fear is always near! ~ 29 Apr 2016~ Contest Sponsored by SKAT A Being invisible #2 - Poetry Contest Note: Fear is the companion of everybody. Silient, irrational, omnipresent, and INVISIBLE. Fear always lurks around the corner, it is invisible and strikes one suddenly. It is diffiult to come to terms with it let alone recognise it. The scream of the drowning person, or the suffocating feeling or terror of a phobia, are all manifestations of FEAR - once you face it, it vanishes!

Hi, Skat, am back again. I did visit your blog but could not post my comment as the Captcha was not completely visible even after several refreshes and other stunts. Am pasting the comment here: Awesome contest with awesome theme. Your choice of first position is absolutely bang on. Thank you for the wonderful contest, Skat, and for my poem's placement. Much honored.

Thank you, Funom. And I love your baby the Funom Sonnet. I couldn't really figure out how to write it the first time, but after the results were published I could make out the beauty in the form and style. Will definitely participate in your next Funom Sonnet competition.
