Fear---
blue, cold, torn, dreaded, frosty
that impacts the routine;
fractured schemes of
unstable balances labelled my palate
iron and agony.


Unassuming agent of eternal pain,
the constant epithet that blocks vanities
and floods my head with old melodies.


Faithful fear,
eternal companion of my lost dreams,
relaxes your pressure,
remembers those days
when we sign the truce
before dark presents, defeats assumed,
and wandered anxiously, looking for other smiles.


Fear, leave me alone consumed
in my silences,
there is not so much sorrow
in this simple life.
