Fear of The Unknown

In the depths of night, when shadows creep,
And all the world is hushed to sleep,
My mind begins to conjure up,
A thousand terrors in a single cup.

Fear of the unknown grips my soul,
A black hole that swallows me whole,
I tremble at the thought of what might be,
In this vast and endless sea.

The future looms, a blank canvas yet to be painted,
A vast expanse of possibility, both cherished and tainted,
My heart races with anticipation and dread,
For the path ahead is still left unsaid.

What if I stumble, what if I fall?
What if I’m not ready for it all?
These thoughts assail me, tearing at my resolve,
Leaving me feeling small and uninvolved.

But in the darkness, a flicker of light,
A beacon of hope, shining so bright,
A reminder that fear is not the end,
But merely a challenge, to overcome and transcend.

For in the unknown, lies a world of wonder,
A vast expanse of possibility to ponder.
