Fear is an emotion
An adrenaline run
One that orders hairs
on the skin to attention.
A fright, a scare.  An upset
to the system.
Since time begun
From cavemen to now
Fear has made us stronger
otherwise we would not survive.
Live, breathe, come out alive.
But nobody likes fear.
It is not nice to now, experience
Life changes into first gear
for power, to exist, to run.
The breath gets short,
the heart moans and groans
under protest. It has fear.
We all do, but wish we had not.
