Fear

Author's Note: In The Robert Langdon Series fear plays a large role in Robert Langdon's life. As a child, he fell into a well and was trapped for hours, hours where he had to endure mass claustrophobia. Ever since, he's been scared of small spaces, and somehow in every book, he finds himself trapped by his fear. My biggest fear is isolation, so I decided to write a poem about it. I'm not entirely sure I like it, so please tell me what you think.

Blood flows like
Ice
Through veins of
Steel
Freezing inside

The panic
The fear
The howling wolf
And circular moon
Show emptiness

A group is protection
Fear disappears
But I am:
Isolated-
Alone.
