Swift

Here it comes
Swift as a poisoned arrow
Embedding itself deep into my heart

Terror

I have nothing to fight for
No animalistic need to stay alive
Because everything is handed to me

But the fear is crippling
The dread and horror of the future
A future I hope I survive

The storybooks don't prepare you
The soothing of soft hands don't protect
Against my doubt and turmoil

I wish I could run
Run until all answers are provided and counted
And I can smooth everything out with well fed hands

Yet my fingers are thin and calloused
Not from work but from worry
The product of a hunched sense of retreat

Here it comes
Swift as an arrow
Embedding itself deep into my heart

Terror
