"Fear In Me" A Poem By Agbama Achu-ulim



In "Fear In Me" Achu-ulim ties his anklet of words on the ankle of every reader, as he questions "My life seems like a Module ,who will read me in?". He ponders further about who he is, and resigned himself to the shackles of fear, how he ruled his days, how it enslaves him and wonders, "could love be pain?"
 "Fear In Me" is a poem that has its clutches on a reader's mind and makes him question once, twice or three times more who he truly is.

 FEAR IN ME


I am not a villain, neither a hero
 
I am a slave to fear.

My veins drip blood carrying fear,

and whatever the cause maybe, I can't tell.

Fear has besieged my inner thoughts,

I'm a capture of its deceptive hooks .

Its chains are tied against my heart.

Like night leading to dawn, so my fear rules over my day.

As a tuning plug in my father's radio, fear controls my mind.

The beat in my heart sounds like a treadmill engine, producing sounds of distress.

Drums of war sounds like a tsunami in my heart.

Fear becomes the crooked enemy, it is looking for my mind to slaughter.

is fear feeling silly?

Could heroism be postponed? so as to slave for fear.

To whom will i threaten?

To whom will i aim my arrow?

To whom will i stand against?
Could fear be this pain?

Is it doubt I crave?

My life seems like a Module, who will read me in? 

The is fear in me!
