Fear
By Elizabeta
June 8, 1998
 
Trembling slightly
Afraid to move
Afraid of what lies unknown
What unseen presence is watching me?
What evil will emerge from the shadows
What object I gaze upon will
turn into
a raging
Monster
right before
my tired eyes?
What disembodied voice from the
cracks and crevices between the
junk in my closet
will be heard, breaking the
shroud of cold
chilling
Silence?
What evil monster spawned from the
very
depths of the dusty carpet
under the bed
has come to haunt me,
prey on my jaded senses
in the mistly light of early Dawn?
 
Oh...  
Be still my trembling  
body, my  
shaky hands...  
Be still my  
Post-Nightmare Trama  
and the fear that keeps me  
awake,  
Afraid to sleep,  
Afraid to dream  
about  
silly common ordinary things  
that seem slightly scary  
in the surrealistic realm  
that lies within my  
(slightly)  
paranoid mind. 
          
Be still this senseless terror that consumes me.
