Fear of Tomorrow

Heather Quarnstrom
Whirling in the void of today
Blanketed by the comfort of yesterday
I hide in fear of tomorrow.

The uncertainty rings through
My soul is filled with quiet terror
And I huddle against the chill of my future.

I peek, just a peek
At what might be and startle.

It's warm, so very warm,
To thaw me to the core of my insecurity.

The love, the fire, the strength,
Of what could be is powerful.

But is the power enough
To pull me from
My self imposed stasis?
