The words got stuck in my head today
But I have let them out to play
Fear can hold me in it’s grip
and take my thoughts away
I knew this would hurt
What could I do
live in fear?
No I
can’t

The words got stuck in my head today
But I have let them out to play
Fear can hold me in it’s grip
and take my thoughts away
I knew this would hurt
What could I do
live in fear?
No I
can’t
The fear of every writer. I find letting my poems go is very freeing. Very cool and simple nonet. Well done – please check mine out too.
Thank you!
I like this poem very much. I find it the case that once we give birth to our poems, they have a life of their own. We need to allow them to have that. It is freeing.
Thank you
NO! You can’t. Beautiful. The opening lines are great.

I love the simplicity of the choice to not live in fear. May it always be so simple a choice.
Yes, it’s now always so simple! Thanks for commenting
Beautiful nonnet! I love the shape and reductionist quality of this style. is suspenseful and keeps you drawn in right to the end when you decide not to be afraid! Well done! “What could I do…live in fear…No, I can’t. Excellent!
Thank you!!
