Truly Terrifying Facts

I feel the beads rolling 
Traversing 
Dripping in the dull quiet 
Hands quaking, unclenched 
An empty thought, daily 
The dry, dense air, my lungs frozen in True Terror 
for what? 
An eternal shade is perched casually 
upon my windowsill, 
the prospect of doubt. 
To consider the intangible 
is to 
is 
The question is answered 
What is to be, but me? 
Ponder the Unknown
