What in my poem do you fear most?
  The dark, definately.
  Thunder...*shudder*
  Spiders! Those count as bugs, right? No? Too bad.
  Bats. Stupid, flying rats...
  Snakes. (Me: Snakes rule! Go Zane!)
  Smoking, drinking, drugs, druggies, etc. Those are crap.
  Losing family.

Okay, this might not be very good, as I'm going to make it up on the spot. Bear with me.

Fears
The things we fear,
The slow-shed tears,
Are things we can't escape.
We cringe away,
And cower low,
When our fears come too close.

A darkened room;
A thunder crash;
A hairy, blackened bug.
A flying bat;
A scaly snake;
A smelly, burning drug.

None of these things
Arouse my fears,
Despite their deadly charm.
I fear one thing
Above all else:
That Daddy won't come home.

The End

Well, now, that wasn't too bad. I'll to remember that one.

Good, I liked the fact that you had meter.

Also, I completely agree with your comment in the poll. Snakes rule! Go Zane! 3nodding

The answers to your poll were not any of the things in your poem that I feared. The thing that scares me most is not being able to escape...

Also a question about your poll. When you say go Zane...is he a character from a story? (If so then would you mind telling me what story?)

Zane is a shapeshifter from the Kiesha'Ra series by Amelia Atwater-Rhodes. He's a cobra, and he's awesome and hot...or cold, whichever. Zane is my hero! 4laugh heart

I honestly love this...and my deepest fear, besides cockroaches (I don't know why I'm afraid of them), is losing the ones I love, so I can completely agree with your poem 3nodding

Good poem. I thought it was going another way though... I thought you were going to end up fearing love, but thats just because its popular to put that into poems and songs... I really liked it.
