Symptoms Of Stress
Fear
Death surrounds both options
Your only chance is to wait
To stay where you’re at
Or you’ll never come back
To seal your ultimate fate
Panic
They cannot see your true self
With that mask of yours
You use it to hide, for your health
But some see through, that is sure
You will not die for you will hide
But yet they try but cannot find
The answers to why there is nothing here for them
A constant need
From multiple directions
What you can see
Does not have affection
Dread
You hallucinate
Smoke figures only dissipate
They are not who come for you
But something else is lurking too
The constant doubt and uneasiness
Is driving you with cowardice
The monsters within are waiting
To attack, and leave you quaking
Your purpose is to distract
Before your fears attack
And make it through the night
Without a surfacing fright
Terror
A light tries to guide your way
You shall not be led astray
The fears within are still around
What’s more is they surround
They approach from different angles
Screaming, biting, harming devils
You cannot see what’s killing you
Until the killing’s done and you are too
The stress of fear
The stress of panic
The stress of dread
The stress of terror
Stress is out to get you
And it’s coming quickly too
So prepare for stress
With all your best
Or, then you won’t get through
