# Fear **Published by:** [Vaiva](https://paragraph.com/@vaiva/) **Published on:** 2023-10-02 **URL:** https://paragraph.com/@vaiva/fear ## Content I thought these troubles long forgotten I thought myself as strong and brave. But lately, I've been feeling fearful of what is lingering within. No longer fear I of the dark, no spiders faze me nor do ghosts. Although a simple concept of forgetting is so much scarier than most. Can I remember what it felt to fall? My first, my second or my third time? To taste? To hurt? To ache? Each time repeated, forever changed. No longer fear I of the dead, nor angry. But GOD how scared I am that this might be my first. ## Publication Information - [Vaiva](https://paragraph.com/@vaiva/): Publication homepage - [All Posts](https://paragraph.com/@vaiva/): More posts from this publication - [RSS Feed](https://api.paragraph.com/blogs/rss/@vaiva): Subscribe to updates - [Twitter](https://twitter.com/vaivka): Follow on Twitter
