Fear
Fear
In a world ordained by mad men
I am treading water gulping for freedom
Paralysis grips the body
The struggle to move mounts
Would it be more peaceful to slip away
Call it a day and be done with it
Along the horizon the sunrise beamed
Not much of a choice
I take a breath
Release it
Find that I can stand
With support
Fear is in retreat
