FEAR

When it feels like an intolerable cold pierces every pore of your body. You shiver. When you hear the pounding of your heart. Booming inside. Noisy enough to wake up the mighty Vesuvius. A second when your breathing stops and you feel like you can still stay alive for all of eternity without inhaling precious life. When you lose the feeling in your legs but are supported by them simply because they have been accustomed to balancing you. When a grey curtain covers your eyes. When the Earth begins to spin faster or its simply all in your head. When you are too afraid to believe what you really see and deep down inside, you fight the truth that it is all just a lie and not real. As it slowly creeps up to your heart and leaves you pale and dead.
It is called FEAR.
