ALTOPHOBIA (PHOBIA SERIES)



ALTOPHOBIA-(from the Greek word:ἄκρον,ákron, meaning "peak, summit, edge" andφόβος,phóbos, "fear") is an extreme orirrational fear or phobia ofheights.

I must not fear.
Fear is the mind-killer.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.
Only I will remain.

---Frank Herbert

On my highest point

You left me there

You thought you helped me,

Raised me, made me

You killed me

How do I get down

You keep telling me to jump,

To trust you,

You'll catch me

I've never been this high before

You tricked me,

Blinded me,

Made me think it was ok

Ok, I trust you

You love me

I'll jump

The air is so hard

You give me an encouraging smile

The ground is getting closer

Closer still

Then you smirk

A devious smile

I can't believe it!

You tricke-...

AGLIOPHOBIA (PHOBIA SERIES)




Agliophobia - (From the Greek word "algo" which means "pain" and the Greek word "phobos" which means "fear" or "dread") is the persistent,unwarranted,often irrational fear of pain.


Fear keeps us focused on the past or worried about the future. If we can acknowledge our fear, we can realize that right now we are okay. Right now, today, we are still alive, and our bodies are working marvellously. Our eyes can still see the beautiful sy. Our ears can still hear the voices of our loved ones.
--- Thich Nhat Hanh

It was not the bruises that hurt

Not the bruise at all

It was the look in your eyes

When you walked away

My heart had never beat so loudly

I saw it coming, the beginning of my hurt

I knew I saw it

You calmed my fears awhile

Awhile..... long enough to stab through my heart

It was not the my body that hurt

Not my body at all

It was my very soul,

My mind,

My sanity

You saw it too

The pain I didn't feel

And when I smiled a ghost smile

It was you who hurt

Cause you didn't hurt me

And it hurt you

After all....

It was not me who hurt

Not me at all

It was you.....

AGATEOPHOBIA (PHOBIA SERIES)





/accounts/1000/removable/sdcard/camera/phobia 2.jpg


AGATEOPHOBIA - (From the Greek word "agate", "insanity"), also known as MANIAPHOBIA,( From the Greek word " mania","madness") is the fear of insanity or becoming insane.

The oldest and strongest emotion of mankind is fear, and the oldest and strongest kind of fear is fear of the unknown.
H. P. Lovecraft


I fell beyond the ground
Into the abyss of your mind
Twisted and shrewd
An unholy ground
With mummified thoughts
And eerie whispers
Where I soon too will become whispers
In the ears of no one
Lost in terror of your mind
The floors a crimson red
With winds about in a room with no exits
I could feel my mind slip
Becoming one with yours
My darkest thoughts
Turning to figures in my presence
Scared to the point of no fear
And there you were
Sitting in a chair of thorns
Looking not at me but through me
To me

PHOBIA SERIES

I think you'd like this story: "PHOBIA SERIES" by Vanessa916 on Wattpad http://w.tt/1map2eS.

PHOBIA SERIES - Achluophobia- fear of darkness (Chapter 1)



You're not alone
The darkness haunts the halls
Waiting,creeping,ever patient
Let your guards down
An eerie smile or imagination
Delusion, denial
Waiting
Fear
Paralysed
The darkness consumes
The walls,the floor,the mind
Closer now
Run or stay
Run
Light ahead
Dim,dimmer
Gone
Hope,none
Run or stay
Stay
Done

I'm baaaaaaaaacckkkk!!!!

TRICKED, NOW TREAT.



The tables turned
It's your turn now
Take your best shot
Titanium
Rigid atmosphere
The deafening silence
Bated breathe
I turn around
At the sound of the door
Creaking open by itself
"It's the wind",i say
I look at you
Only you're not alone
Not anymore
Who are they
When did they get in
I heard nothing
Your eyes shone a strange colour
Your laugh echoes
I stand up and back away
The door slams shut!
"You're mine now" you say
My heart beating in my ears
My body visibly shaking
Speechless
In the corner of my eye
I see the back door
I run out
You let me
Why did you let me?
Something 's not right
Before I realise
I hear the roar
All I see is blood and fur

FEAR




We build our prisons
The points our minds won't let us pass
Self degradation
Low self esteem
We are our obstacles
The mountain blocking our path
Mind over matter
Take the first step
Push through
Our limitations
Our biggest flaw
Fear
No fear no limits
How strong are you
Only as strong as your fear let's you
Our prison
Our limitation
Our fear

LAVA



The only way was down
It was a loss-loss game
These feelings all around
The faces with no names

The darkness that lurks
Ever creeping closer
Like waves on the docks
Clashing, edging nearer

The choice was down or dead
The pressure pressing further
The road was steep and red
The colours getting harsher

The heat is near now
His minions leaping closer
The way to escape,how
Too late and getting later

DEAD

The age is dark
Faith is dead
The cries of victims
Bloodshed everywhere
The loud explosions
No louder than my heart beat in my ears
The soldiers struggling,
Dying,sacrificing for us
Our leaders crumbling
Where are the heroes!
The ones we put our trust
Where is the hope!
Surely,you can't leave us now
What do we do?!
Who will help?!
No one!
They're all dead,
Hiding,
Slaving,
Dead.
They're all gone!
They left us!
Now we are.......dead.

UNWANTED (Guest Post)

I feel like a speck of black among the white Like the look in a deer's eye before it dies Like a rose in the desert I am all alone Even when the world is against me And I feel like I'm breaking I try to be strong and seem perfect for all to see How long till I break And spill my guts on the floor I am shrouded in darkness Reaching out in silence For someone to save me And even though I know There is no one for me I still have hope But even that lasts only so long So now I say I'm finally broken My secret exposed to the whole world And once again I'm all alone It's there and then,that I finally realise That I am UNWANTED.

PANDEMONIUM




The past's place misplaced
The future lacking in grace
The present looking faked
How much more can I take

Drifting in and out of shadows
No focus in the hallows
Darkness darker than dark
Here I lay, stark

Illusive mirage
Emotional barrage
Unbreakable chains
Unspeakable pains

Broken pieces
Heart beat ceases
Once again in darkness
Droned in madness

BLOG UPDATE



  Hey guys. First of all thank you all so much for all the love and attention you guys have showed towards my blog. It means so much to me,like,i can't just tell you how much. God bless every single one of you.

  Secondly, I want to apologise for not posting in awhile. I've been super busy and hadn't had the time.

 On that note, I have decided to post only once a week. Any poet or writer knows how hard it is to come up with good quality post. As much as I want to put up a post at least twice a week,i can't. The motivation for my poems aren't always around and aren't easy to find and just like the past weeks,ive been super busy and didn't have the time to post. For that reason,ive decided to post only once a week and I'll try to make sure it's worth the wait.

 Thanks to everyone helping to push my blog forward.,i appreciate it. love Y'all.

UNREDEEMED



All she wanted was a little love
A little trust, a little care
All she fought for
Betrayal in the air

Eyes all dried up
Evil laugh echoes
Hopes all dropped
When love goes

Wishes all wished out
Requests yet unfulfilled
Pray now or pray not
Choices all concealed

No way,no end
When was there ever
No will,no stand
None together

EMO-TIONS

 

Speak the word and let me feel
All my emptiness be filled
Feelings long since sealed
Speak the word and let me feel

Break my heart,let me go
I can never be controlled
As steel I am cold
Break my heart,let me go

And at the end of the road
Take my life and let me be
In peace forever me goad
Let me rest peacefully

STRONGER


I won’t shed a tear
I won’t let it fall
This pain that I feel
Is nothing at all
You won’t hear my cries
You won’t hear me scream
Empty lies
Empty dreams
Heart of stone
Eyes of the tiger
Is what I own
Is what I desire

SAVED


When the ache is all I know
When the pain is all I feel
When I’m feeling all alone
Give me something to believe
Raining in my bed
Clouds above my head
Screaming to the skies
Won’t you hear my cries
I can’t see much far ahead
Where does this journey lead?
I can’t wait to see the end
I don’t like being so scared
Then like the light at the end of the tunnel
I see you and you bring me hope
Standing there,looking like an angel
I know that I’m going home.

ILLUSIONS





           
                       

                   image
The beauty of light
Is the one in sight
The tears in my eyes
Are the ones inside
The cries of the night
Is the melody of fright
The joy that is stolen
Will never last
All that is golden
Will wither fast
Only the pure
Shall live true

        The reason for opening this blog is to write. Writing is my passion,actually its more of my hobby than anything else. I've been secretly writing since i was in the 7th grade. Secretly because i was very introverted. My poems were and are very special to me, the difference is that right now i've decided to post my poems for public reading.
