What Am I?
I am the heart pounding,
Head throbbing feeling inside.
The feeling you get when you know.
Know that I am coming closer,
And closer,
And closer.
I am the foot tapping
Hand shaking sensation
The feeling that creeps up behind you
And grabs your waist and squeezes, tighter
And tighter
Do you know what I am?
Do you know how I frighten you every time?
How you know I’m coming,
And yet you still shiver
I am with you always
Lurking and waiting around each and every corner
Waiting, just waiting
Waiting to make my move
I am fear!
