What
Something is needling me so,
working away at my very core.
I feel frustrated, yet do not know why -
a piteous feeling of distress
scratching away at my insides
and causing me much concern...
What can be the reason I feel so locked out,
the name of the game I cannot, even refuse, to play?
Insecurity is setting in,
indecision rides a tidal wave
and I am drowning in a pool of terror!
What is causing this unnerving, trembling of my being,
this destruction of my will,
the fear of losing my soul?
I cannot say!
But let the answer be clarified,
the solution sought -
peace re-nurtured...
