    I love the image of the woods. The trees mocking and the birds crying. It's sets a good stable source for the folk tale about Hansel and Gretel. No breadcrumbs.
    I love poems that can easily do that and you did it well here. :)
    This is sad and shocking and... I loved it.

    Oh I also like how you compare your fear to a beast. :)

    I loved every bit of this poem. I just love poetry that creates a mere image in your head and thats exactly what yours did (: It all flowed together so nicely and all balanced out well. Excellent write. <3 5/5

    Running from fear clearly describes how cloying fear can be, how seemingly inescapable, and it shows what can happen if one actually gives up. This is good writing, and I feel I will have to read it again and again, not for fear itself, but to wonder at the near immensity of this poor wretched creation of the evil one.

    Running from our fear, boosts the yoke. Knowing the Truth, is living free.

    For I am destined to walk alone, intertwined with their flavorless lies.
    I wander through these dark, haunting woods
    Screams and shrieks of birds so revolting
    The trees mock and taunt my every move
    Beauty from the pain is now unfolding.
    There are no breadcrumbs to show the way back
    No hope of finding where I belong
    My heart no longer in tact,
    And my will no longer so strong,

    ^^^ that is my favorite part since i have been this way too much i have pushed my emotions back and mentaly i have gone through this and i gotta say i love thank you for sharing this poem! :)5/5
