The Unknown

Hesitating into an unknown world My chest is drumming to the beat of my footsteps What humans fear is the unknown My fear crawl under my skin, taking control over my veins The insidious smile it has when my body freezes The sweet past seducing me into its arms A bitter taste emerges from the back of my throat, its vile It begins, my battle My fingers dig themselves into the pocket of my throat Drilling to conquer the pest dwelling inside me The pain urges me to stop Plucking out the invader, it disappears weeping Liberated from my chain I walk into an unknown world
