Fear

Its a disease of the mind,
Where some people find
Its hard to breathe.
Its hard to see
Its hard to know whats around you.
Your body gets stiff
And you feel the need to grip
On to anything surrounding you.
Your eyes search for a light
But its out of sight
Because your eyes are shut with fear.
Fear
Fear
Your breathing is uneasy
Your stomach gets queezy
Fear
Fear
Muscles tight
With all this fright
Fear
Fear
Emotions are high
Tears ready to cry
Fear
You can't get rid of this fear.

Again, another beautiful poem, Tanya. I write a lot of crazy crap , but in my opinion, what you write is what poetry was truly made for. If you keep writing, I will keep reading.......Thanks for sharing your thoughts. and remember "I can see you--------not in a creepy way though" LOL
