Pho,fear

People are afraid,
everyone of us.

Heights, Cats, Rats,
Darkness, Laughter,
or even the number thirteen.

But this is not fear,
for you know where it comes from.

Then again,
some phobias cannot be defined,
this is fear.
for we do not know what are we truly afraid of.
and yet,

we are scared,
everyone of us.


What am I afraid of?
What are You afraid of?
What are we all guarding ourselves against?
