Fear lives inside us all
It moves throughout our bodies
It makes our hands shake like earthquakes
It walks all over our brains turning our senses to mush
It hits our hearts like a punching bag forcing the heart beat faster
It blocks your nose so you breathe heavy from your mouth
It stands on your head ripping out hairs one after the next
It pulls your eyelids shut like a blinds on a window
You can't open your eyes and so you squeeze tighter
There's no way to see where you are and who might be with you
So you back up into a corner and slide to the ground until the sun comes up
The sun forces all the tears back inside you
You may not be able to see it but fear is always there
