Evrod Samuel Poet Verse

Fear and Emotions

What do I see that is not there?
All about is dark
Causing my senses to tingle
Filling me with fear

I can see currents of emotions
Swirling in the air
I feel the burden of too much care
I am being filled with deep despair

As clear as day I observe the unseen
I linger in a dream
Where all is worse than it seems

Anxiety rules supreme over me
My sixth sense harangues me
No one I am sure can rescue me

I inhabit a world where light shines through darkness
Illuminating all that is hidden
And was never meant to be seen

What I see that isn’t there
Are not ghouls and spectres
But are truths laid incautiously bare

What I see is never clear
Unless
I am filled with deep fear
It is a curse I must
Perpetually bear

Allan Koven September 23, 2013 at 7:02 PM Emotions can electrify an already fragile mindset. The outcome as you describe is seldom pleasant. Often for whatever reason it becomes our way of life. For some of us, it is bred into our DNA. I too, wrestle with those same feelings and find myself beset with sentiments that can at time become overwhelming.
