Fear

Is paralyzing, steals your peace.
It makes your blood boil and your heart race.
Drains your color and puts sweat on your brow.
I'd calm down but I don't know sure how.

Twists your stomach in knots and loosens your bowels.
Makes my head thump and my ears ring.
Keeps my mind muddled so I can't think of a thing.
One minute I want to hide the next I want to flee.
Yes, this thing called fear has really got a hold on me!
