An Acquaintance With

The mechanics and its doing,
     the thought process in place,
the origin of thinking
     kept me searching for its trace.

The unsettling feeling,
     the stirring at the core,
the magnitude of fearing
     caused this emotional downpour.

The mind and heart reeling,
     the tremors on my body,
the fabric of my being
     shrouded in fear and anxiety.
