Fear


Oh no what have i done ?

Was it right or wrong?

What have I brought to myself?

I don't wanna go through the motions

I'm just speechless

Wondering whether I was a warrior

But no , I'm a worrier

I guess it was not worth it in the end

 

I ran as fast as I could

But I guess it was faster than I was

It caught up with me

Made me send signals to my body 

That there's a horror in the radar

Shivers just ran down my spine

Not knowing where to go

 

I tried to hide 

But it was my every move

I just remained frozen

Waiting for it to finish me off

But no, that was not it

I closed my eyes and took a leap of faith

 

I said no more 

I'm going to face it 

This was do or die

Mano a mano 

Me against it

I gave it a knockout

And commanded it to leave my body

Immediately it left whimpering

Like a fearful dog 

Never again it returned
