Shadows of Fear

Something inside me has died..
Something within me lose it's tide..
I want to hold on to revive..
Trying to rescue, not to hide..

I must be happy..
But why do I feel this way..

Fear is creeping..
Anxiety is beginning..
Worry starts to build..
Hope initially declines..

I close my eyes taking deep breathe..
Deafening silence stands by...
Yearning to be at comfort..
Questing and unceasingly at jolt...
