Fear


Remember that feeling you get before public speaking?

The fluttering restless butterflies and the quickening of your breathing?

 

Or how about the intense shaking when around heights?

Your heart beating "thump thump thump" like strobe lights.

 

That's the way I feel when i ask someone where they'll spend eternity...

Heaven or hell? Doomed by their impurity?

 

Such a vital question, required of all...

Such a vital question; but why do I feel so intimidated and small?
