This is a poem I wrote for a free- write in my high school creative writing class. I really like how it turned out. It was featured in a local poetry event. Any comments are appreciated.

"Fear"

I am not afraid to die,

For it is inevitable, I cannot deny.

I am not afraid to live.

I will face any challenge it may give.

I don't fear monsters, spirits, or ghosts.

I don't fear beasts from distant coasts.

I don't fear men or their creations.

I don't fear wars with distant nations.

I fear not horrors written in pages

Or those on screens or performed on stages.

I don't fear anger from above.

I fear the loss of those I love
