Ode to the Fear I Fear

Leave me be!
The terror that quakes inside my bones.
Sending shivers down my spine.
Let me go!
The deadly grasp around my throat.
Causing difficulty to breathe.
Leave me be!
The thoughts that shake and stir.
Do not seek me from the shadows.
Let me go!
The hold upon my free will.
Let me speak this justice.
Leave me be!
The possibilities that brew within my mind.
Those things that can never happen.
Let me go!
The hesitation in my motions.
There not be a lacking courage.

Be gone henceforth into the night!
I shall not allow such an awful fright!
