Fearful Fate Poem by James McLain

I'm afraid of my fate, so uncertain and vast,
A labyrinth of choices, a tempest that lasts.
In the depths of my soul, a tremor takes hold,
Whispering doubts and fears, a story untold.

Will I stumble in darkness, lost and alone?
Or find strength in my heart, a place to call home?
The threads of my destiny, woven in disguise,
Tangle and twist, as time swiftly flies.

Oh, what lies ahead, beyond the horizon's gaze?
A symphony of triumphs or a tragic malaise?
Will fortune favor me, with its gentle embrace?
Or cast me aside, a forgotten soul in this space?

I yearn for the answers, yet they dance out of sight,
Like elusive fireflies on a moonless night.
But I'll face my fears, with courage ablaze,
Embracing the unknown, in its mysterious ways.

For within my trembling heart, a flicker of hope,
A beacon that guides me, helps me to cope.
Though uncertainty lingers, like a shadow unkind,
I'll chart my own path, leaving fear far behind.

So, I'll embrace my fate, with courage unbowed,
For the future awaits, like a canvas unwound.
I'll write my own story, with each step I take,
Fear may tremble within, but it won't make me break.
