I am afraid!
I speak of soothing fear.
Fear that could keep me safe;
Safe but not from harm.
Fear that would lock me tight in a box;
Uptight but not gasping for air.
Fear that stirs me out of the game;
To the sidelines, a mirage with control of the gear.
Fear that would stink with doubts!
Dreams but threatens not to succeed.
I am afraid,
I speak of soothing fear
A jinx..
That is back like once before.
