it is a demon
it is the shock that you feel within the depths of your soul
it approaches slowly at first, and then all at once
it steals your opportunities of happiness and peace like a thief in the night
it begins with a mere whisper in your head and then cascades through your body until you are paralyzed
it is fear.
and it is the first thing I remember feeling.
