Welcome to the Kenwood poetry blog!

This blog showcases the original poetry of some of Kenwood Academy High School's Senior Class.

The diversity of the student body is mirrored in the diversity of the poetry; some poems are lighthearted and others are quite personal and serious. While the poems incorporate a variety of styles and themes, they are all inspired by the poetry that we've studied in class.

Fear

What is fear?
Is it something that stops you
From doing the things that makes you fearless
Or is it the things that make you capable to do anything
If you are fearful does it mean that you are not brave?
If you are fearless does it mean that you are courageous?

Many feel as if they can not be fearful
For it may show others of their weakness
With weakness, comes doubt
And with doubt comes, worrywhen all of these words are bound together
It all goes back to the word
FEARFUL

Others feel, if they are fearless
They will be seen as powerful
With power, comes bravery
And with bravery, comes courage
When all of these adjectives bound together
It all goes back to the word
FEARLESS

We feel if we are fearless
Then we are strong
We have the ability to conquer anything
With ability comes determination
And with determination comes strength
When all of these words are bound together
It all goes back to the word
FEAR

Within these words
There are mixed feelings
Feelings that are sensitive
And
Feelings that are nonchalant
The question remains what is fear?
